I purchased this set to go with an antique chess table that my wife and I recently bought for a library room. Not being frequent players, we were looking for something classy, unique and with a high visual appeal – more like artwork – in addition to something that was a functional chess set.
In short, we love this set. The pieces are beautifully carved and have a very rich look to them. The budrosewood pieces look great on black squares and I’m glad I chose them over ebony as you can see a lot of wood grain. The weighting of the pieces makes them feel wonderfully solid to the touch and adds to the playing experience. The pieces are inviting to us and to our children and we have already used them more than I might have expected. Overall the quality is excellent.
