Note globale du site
The figures in this set are designed around a medieval theme, more specifically the legend of King Arthur.
They are hand carved and polished, and feature a felt protection under their base. Nicely weighted, they are a pleasure to handle. With a king height of 8.9 cm, they boast plenty of detail, particularly on the faces and the knight.
The standard-size chess board, 40 x 40 cm, is made from ebony-effect wood, its tone pairing beautifully with the metal chess pieces.
Created by a craftsman specialising in chess set making, we offer you this medieval-themed chess set at an incredible value for the size and quality on offer.
You can personalise this set by adding an optional printed plaque to create a personalised chess board, making it a superb chess gift.
Matching Guide
Choosing the right board size
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.
