Nice quality
Amazing quality and colors. Board is beautiful and has substantial weight. Pieces are polished and just the right size.
However, a design element i overlooked when ordering was the cut-off flat top style of the pieces. Namingly , the Castles and Bishops. There were no "castley" nooks or "bishopy" points to inspire awe.
Look closely when you order, as you may indeed like that style, but for me it was a bit plain.
Overall a great set, and matched my decor perfectly . However, they could have stepped up their design element-

Purchased this set for a very special family gift for our grandchildren, 10 and 12 years old as they have been learning chess with Grandpa. Our 12 year old grandson joined school chess club, making friends, thinking strategy, interacting with others. Nice change from video games! The website photo caught my eye as classic and elegant. Was very happy overall with this set. The marble green pieces are stunning with lots of black marbling accents swirled in. The size is perfect and very sturdy white pieces did not have grey marbling, just solid white pieces Talked to Josh at customer service who graciously offered to find other white pieces. This would have been extremely time consuming and other options were offered. I decided to keep set, with all the problems in the world didn’t think all white was such a big problem. Worked out another option , Josh really went above and beyond wanting to make me very satisfied. We gave Chess House set as an early special family Christmas gift. They were absolutely thrilled with it and our 10 year old granddaughter loved the white chess pieces. Said they looked like they were made from pearls from the ocean!! Who could ask for more than that!!! Customer service is above and beyond,genuine, sincere patient and professional in resolving any issues and making everything right. Also was not aware of any chess piece bags at the time I ordered set. I just ordered them, talked with Paul another great customer service representative I suggest they might highlight chess piece bags as optional purchase when customers order sets as I would have included them in my original order. The Rules of Chess book is a great accessory and interesting, can’t wait to add bags and book to kids set. Chess House quality and customer service is exceptional and would highly recommend any purchases made with them!!!
It is a beautiful chess set and I hope to learn the game but until I do, I'll just enjoy looking at it. Thank you!
Finish on chess pieces were inconsistent. Some pieces were dull and others were polished.
One white pawn (left one in attached picture) deformed just below the round ball portion.
The chess board green and white squares were not aligned perfectly.
