Odd. I like the box more than the pieces. Not my cup of tea.

I have this set, excellent, although the pieces are small, the kings about 3-1/4 inches high. I probably have 15 different chess sets and this is one of my favorites. But remember the pieces are small. 140 pounds sterling.

I paid 100 pounds about 7 years ago.
