1935 Botvinnik Flohr-II Soviet Set di soli pezzi di scacchi - Bosso anticato e bosso ebanizzato con effetto distress - 4,4" Re

Ottima fattura e qualità. Lo consiglio a chiunque desideri collezionare oggetti sovietici/russi.

Royal Chess Mall had a quick delivery to US with pieces arriving in perfect condition. All the slender pieces are straight without lean.

Aesthetically, I find the style clean and elegant with expressive knights. I really struggled choosing between this set and Royal Chess Mall's Dubrovnik or Zagreb sets. The knights are perhaps just a touch large for a fall line from the king to rook. When looking at the photos online, I worried that the queen and bishop lack distinction, but viewed in person it isn't a problem. The queen has a noticeably larger presence.

As noted in other reviews, the color of the light pieces is more golden than the toffee shade of other antiqued/distressed sets. I have two 57mm wooded boards, ebony/maple and rosewood/maple. Personally, I like the ebony/maple combo better.

Nel complesso, sono molto soddisfatto e prenderò in considerazione RCM per acquisti futuri.

My brown pieces actually look more golden, even a little on the brass side. Perhaps this is a trick of lighting? But I absolutely adore them! They’re very simple slender excellently waited, feel fantastic in the hands, and the austerity just excites me! The horse is very regal and powerful - it has overtones of a lion. Love it.

Admittedly, this is my first "nice" chess set, so I may be biased, but I am floored by the quality of product I received. While the shade of the light pieces was slightly different than what I expected--there are highlights and swirls of bronze that don't quite make it through in the display photographs--I'm not bothered by it at all. In fact, I think I like them more than I initially anticipated! The carving is perfect, every detail immaculate, and the finish is smooth and flawless. Every piece arrived in mint condition.

Consiglio vivamente Royal Chess Mall a chiunque sia interessato a pezzi degli scacchi perfetti e tornerò sicuramente quando sarò pronto per il mio prossimo set “bello”.

Vivo nel Regno Unito; ho acquistato da Royal Chess Mall in quattro occasioni separate e ogni volta tutto è andato liscio. Un problema con un ordine è stato risolto immediatamente (grazie Manwinder) e non esiterei a raccomandarli o a utilizzarli nuovamente. Nel complesso, servizio eccellente e ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo con un'interessante gamma di prodotti. I pezzi Botvinnik Flohr II sono belli e ben fatti per il prezzo che hanno.

Really, really excellent. The only thing is that perhaps the two colors of the pieces lack suficient distinctivity. But I really love them.

A very nice set. Well executed and finished. A lighter hand on the application of the "distress" finish to the White pieces would make this a masterpiece.
