Old English Character with a Contemporary Touch
The Old English Contemporary collection brings together two qualities that work particularly well in a wooden chess set: the familiarity of traditional chess design and the clean appearance of a more contemporary setting.
The result is a set that feels immediately at home on the chessboard. Its proportions remain unmistakably rooted in traditional chess, while the overall presentation gives it a versatile appearance suited to both classic and modern interiors
