Romanian Hungarian Series chessmen are extremely popular in tournaments in Romania and Hungary. The design is a refreshing change form the mundane Staunton style chess pieces earlier used.

Customer Reviews
One of the pieces is not cracked and therefore not covered under warranty, but it has what appears to me to be a wood knot, a place where a branch was sprouting off of the main branch of the tree, that is now slightly expanding outwards as a small raised rough bump. This piece is not smooth at all like all the other pieces. It must have been smooth when they ground the piece on a wood lathe and buffed it out and over time is doing this. I understand this is a product that is made from natural wood, what I don't like is that if I knew pieces could come like this I would have not purchased this set. I think this should be covered under warranty, they said no, which should be a warning to others that this is considered within the 'normal' possibilities that you might get when you buy a set. Be sure you are ok with this yourself before purchasing.
Love these pieces. They were in stock here before any other website. There was a small scratch on the face of one of the black knights, but other than that they were perfect. Delivery was faster than I expected and they were packaged very safely. I'm very pleased overall.
They are really pretty wood and nice and thick . I was worried that they were damaged because the box was smashed but when I unwrapped each one they were all fine .
nice chess pieces, very regular shapes
