game and plenty of
discussion rages on the
origins of the pieces.

opinions these pieces are
now firmly accepted as
being chessmen in the
conventional sense. The

This magnificent white
tower chess set has been
produced under license
from Historic Royal
Palaces Enterprises Ltd
and is themed around the
royal palace and fortress
of the tower of London.
The white tower is a
cornerstone of English
history and is the oldest
of the buildings that
form the famous Tower of
London. It has served as
a prison, a chapel, a
records office and a
store house and it's also
said that it was a place
used to torture
prisoners. The list of
people who have become
unfortunate visitors of
the tower reads like a
who's who of English
history, From Elizabeth
the second to Guy Fawkes.
One of the most notable
figures who became
heavily associated with
the tower was Henry the
eighth who is beautifully
depicted as the king of
the chess set. He is
accompanied by his second
wife, Queen Ann Boleyn
and flanked by cardinal
Thomas Wolsey who is
depicted for the
bishops. This fantastic
themed chess set is
another superb product

A complete departure from
the classic wooden chess
piece design. Designed
and fabricated by
professional chess
artisans from Italy the
Brass and Nickel
construction results in
pieces that have weight,
character and are nicely
balanced in the player's
hand. The design is very
elegant and slender and
harks back to the minimal
modernist design of the
early twentieth century.
The pieces are fitted
with red felt pads on
their underside to
protect the playing
surface and are presented
in a special cardboard
presentation box, making
them the perfect gift.
Although these pieces
have a small King's base
diameter of 1.2 inches,
their slim design
warrants a larger square
size to counter balance
this. We recommend chess
boards with square sizes
of 1.6 inches or above,
17 or 18 inches in
length.

Expertly turned Brass and
Nickel plated Brass chess
pieces, designed and
manufactured in Italy.
They are based loosely on
the Staunton design that
is so familiar, such as
the bridled Knight yet
have much more detail
than is usually found on
wooden pieces. They are
finished in a fine coat
of lacquer that protects
the metal from tarnishing
and really brings the
collection to life,
especially when presented
on a glossy board. The
bottom of each piece is
fitted a distinctive red
felt pad, protecting the
playing surface from
scratches during play.
Finally this collection
is shipped in a special
cardboard presentation
box, making them the
perfect gift option.
Although these pieces
have a small King's base
diameter of 0.9 inches,
their slim design
warrants a larger square
size to counter balance
this. We recommend chess
boards with square sizes
of 1.6 inches or above,
17 or 18 inches in
length.
