Pieces, boards and complete sets
The range covers complete chess sets with board and pieces, standalone chess piece sets without board as well as chess boards without pieces – across various materials and executions. The thematic worlds run from the historical Middle Ages through the Arthurian legend to fantasy motifs: crusaders against Saracens, King Arthur and the Round Table, dragon and knight motifs alongside ancient battles around Troy. Several chess sets are built upon decorative castle towers and work as both playing set and display piece. Beyond the figure sets, chess boards in wood, faux leather and eco-leather are also available – standalone or combined with backgammon.
Complementary pieces within the medieval theme sit with the Knight Figurines and the Medieval Goblets & Tankards.
