Note globale du site
The chess pieces are designed around the historic clashes between England and Scotland. The armies are made up of figures, hand-painted, with the English wearing traditional red garments on one side, and the Scots dressed in green and brown on the other. Both kings wear a thick crown atop flowing hair. They stand proudly with their swords, while their beautiful queens stand discreetly by their side. The knights look fierce, their steeds rearing up ready for battle.
With a king height of 8 cm, the pieces come with a walnut and maple wood chess board measuring 37 x 37 cm, featuring a storage compartment to store the entire chess set.
A beautiful historic chess set with lovely finishing touches.
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.
