Description of American Staunton Wood Chess Pieces 3 3/4" King - Ebonized
Another set new to our collection of wood chess pieces is the American Staunton wood chess set. It is not only a striking set, but is a bargain for the price.
The king stands 3 3/4 inches tall with a 1 5/8 inch base. The knight has the traditional raised head--ears laid back, teeth bared and nostrils flared--ready to do battle!
The dark side of this set is made from an Ebonized hardwood, which gives the dark pieces the look of fine ebony, but eliminates many of the problems associated with ebony, such as cracking. The light pieces as made of Boxwood. The pieces all have felt bottoms. Typical to fine wood, the grain and color may vary slightly from piece to piece. Treat them as you would fine furniture. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight and store them in a humidity stable area.
We suggest using a board with squares from to 2" to 2.25". Complete set of 32 pieces - extra queens not available for this set.

I was very pleased with the pieces. I like weighted pieces and I wasn't disappointed! Very nice feel! You cannot beat the price! I took the set down to my chess club and the guys couldn't believe I only paid $42.00 for the set. Said they were going to order one for themselves. I recommend Wholsale Chess over any other place in the Country.

Kent from Big Rapids American Staunton Wood Chess Pieces 3 3/4" King - Ebonized ReviewI'm not an expert on chess pieces but the pieces look beautiful.
