House of Staunton Professional Series Chess Set Review

This set is gorgeous and amazing value for the money. The intricate detail of the knights is far superior to the ones in the set it replaces. I bought an ebonized set to replace a generic Indian ebony set lost in a move. I've always wanted a House of Staunton set but can't pay the $700.00 they currently want for the ebony Collectors Series. This seemed like an agreeable alternative. The finish, the carving, and the detail all exceeded my expectations. If you love chess and want to treat yourself to the best, without breaking the bank, this is your set. I plan to pair it with a leather board and take it to club meetings and tournaments. At least I will if I can bear strangers handling it.

Product Description:
Nothing can heighten your Chess playing experience more than the feel and weight of finely crafted Staunton Chess. The House of Staunton is proud to offer the Professional Series Chessmen. They are adaptations of a Jaques of London design from the mid-1890s and were used on all boards at the 2000 US Open Chess Championship in St. Paul, MN. These elegant Chessmen feature broad bases with finely turned detail that is normally only found on the much more expensive House of Staunton Chessmen.
This full-tournament sized set features a 3.75" King, weighs an impressive 42 ounces and includes 4 Queens. The design and feel of these Chessmen make them ideal for serious tournament competition.


As with all House of Staunton Chessmen, this set exemplifies the perfect combination of beauty and functionality. The design, quality and workmanship of each House of Staunton piece is UNMATCHED by any set of Chessmen in its price range. Nothing even comes close!The Chessmen are new and each set consists of 34 Chessmen, 17 light and 17 dark (including the two additional Queens.)
