Our Northern Upright Chessmen are based on a design that is more than 200 years old and predates the now traditional Staunton design.
The Northern Upright (or Edinburgh) chess set was a popular precursor of the Staunton pattern and is thought to have partly inspired the first Staunton design.
This reproduction is a humble attempt by our company to recreate an iconic design.
