A chess set on the theme of the American Civil War, in dominant shades of blue and grey, with great attention to detail in the faces, costumes and colours.
In this version, the wives of Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis have been chosen as the Queens.
Sold without a chess board.
A beautiful chess set rests on a simple balance: pieces well proportioned to the size of the squares. To choose a harmonious board, the most reliable guide is the diameter of the king's base.
Key guideline: ideally, the king's base takes up about 75% of the square.

A board that is too small can hamper moves and make the set look cluttered. À l’inverse, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole. The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.
