A magnificent reproduction of the mid-19th-century Staunton pattern, this 4.4-inch 1850 Antique Ebony Chess Set captures the grace and authority of the era that defined modern chess.

Each piece is individually hand-carved and turned by master artisans, faithfully echoing the style and proportions of the original 1850 Jaques design. The set features a commanding 4.4-inch (112 mm) king, with a broad base and beautifully balanced weighting that ensures a reassuring stability on the board. The knights, with their finely sculpted manes and alert expressions, stand out as true works of craftsmanship.

The dark pieces are made from deep, polished ebony wood, while the light pieces are crafted from the finest natural boxwood — finished to a soft antique patina that exudes authenticity and timeless appeal. Each piece is weighted and green-felted for smooth movement and board protection.

This exquisite set is housed in a Mahogany Deluxe Box, lined and polished to complement the elegance of the pieces, making it ideal for both display and secure storage.
