This is a lovely set, perfectly crafted and weighted. If you like pieces with a wide base, as I do, then look no further - you will love these. The pieces also have a pleasantly chunky feel about them. I was a bit iffy about the knights from the photos at first, but I needn't have worried - they fit perfectly with the other pieces. Kudos also to RCM for speedy delivery!

Wonderful set

The pieces are beautiful and well made. A timeless chess set.
