We engage in the research of antique chess sets from manufacturers such as Jaques of London to the British Company and more recently, Russian antique chess pieces have seen a resurgence. Our most popular antique chess set reproductions are the 1849 Cooke chess pieces and the sublime 1851 chess pieces
The quality and accuracy of our antique chess sets are unsurpassed. We are fast emerging as the number one chess company in the World and are considered specialists in our field. We liaise with renown artists and chess set collectors and absorb a wealth of informative knowledge which aids us in the deciding factor on what chess set to reproduce. Having close contacts with the chess collectors is such a major boost in our endeavor to maintain the very high standards in which our customers have become accustomed to.
Below is an image depicting the very popular 1849 Cooke Chess Pieces.
ANTIQUE STAUNTON
As you can see the above set is a perfect example of an antique Jaques Cooke design chess piece set. This is the gold standard design that has become commonplace among chess collectors, in fact, suffice to say some of the serious chess set collectors will only consider a Staunton set for inclusion to their precious collection.
Aside from the Staunton design pieces we periodically undertake projects to include matching chess boards and chess boxes, fashioned in the style of the bygone era. Our antique chess boards, for example, are the perfect platform to host our wonderful antique chess pieces, and suitable to use with our larger chess pieces up to 4.5 Inch.
