Review on Handmade White & Green Onyx Staunton And Ambassador Chess Sets - Perfect Gift For Adults! by David Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beautiful, unique, and solid

This is a beautiful chess set, well worth the price. The marble striations are unique and captivating and the design overall is just absolutely gorgeous. The board and the pieces are heavy enough we can set it up and play on the bed. The box provided for storage is slightly chintzy, I would have preferred something other than velcro closures and the material it's made of is a bit flimsy - but it fits together well and the organization is carefully thought out. I can't complain since the set itself is so great.I don't know why, but finding a good, unique chess that's as solid as this one was a pain in the a** - I'm picky about chess and don't like anything with a hint of shoddy manufacture. Fortunately this set lives up to the photos. There's no felt on the bottom of the pieces but after playing the board shows not even a tiny sign of scratching. A great value and I highly recommend it.
