7 day production time as these boards are made to order
The chessmen are crafted as faithful reproductions of the iconic designs from 1862, featuring a 3.5-inch king with wide bases, staying true to the proportions and style of the era. Each piece is meticulously hand-carved, weighted, and felted to ensure stability and smooth gameplay. The intricate detailing and robust design reflect the heritag craftsmanship. The set includes 34 chess pieces, with two additional queens for pawn promotion.

Its purposeful quirks and gently aged finish lend it a vintage charm, with a used and well-loved appearance that perfectly complements the historical style of the chessmen.
