A magnificent set made entirely of resin, with a wealth of fine detail on the theme of the Crusades and, more specifically, the Order of the Knights Templar.
The resin chess board has been hand-sculpted and boasts numerous fine details, from the cross pattée carved into the playing surface to the ornate border surrounding the board.
The resin chess pieces depict the knights of the Templar order in red and white tones and are entirely hand-painted.
A chess set on the theme of the Knights Templar that will delight enthusiasts of this famous secret and enigmatic order of holy knights, said to have held the Holy Grail, the cup that contained the blood of Christ.
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.
