The New Exclusive Staunton handcrafted chess set has all of the features that an avid chess player and collector looks for in an upper-end Staunton chess set. The ebonized boxwood is jet black with no visible grain just like real ebony while the cream colored natural boxwood is the perfect wood for the white chess pieces. From the elegant profile with a large tapered base to the extraordinary knights carved by some of the best craftsmen in the world, you will be thoroughly impressed with the quality of these Staunton chessmen. The king is 3.5" tall and has a 1.625" base - an excellent size for the casual game at home! The pieces are triple weighted for exceptional stability and have thick green baize pads for a soft landing on the chess board. We include 2 extra queens for pawn promotion and a certificate of authenticity so you will always know what the chess set is, where it came from, and when it was made.

    Excellent Chess Pieces

    For my board with 2” squares, these pieces look wonderful! In fact, I think they look even better in person than the pictures online.

    Nice set at a great price

    Posted by Tony on 9th Apr 2018

    I have the version of this set with a 3'' King and am very happy with that, so I decided to go with the 3.5'' version when I needed a larger set for serious games. This set has a very nice design and is approximately double-weighted (just a guess based on the fact that it's not as heavy as quad-weighted set I have but is also much heavier than an unweighted set I have), which makes it excellent for tournament or causal play. The ebonized black pieces were uniform in color and all thoroughly stained. This is a much better set than expected at this price point and I couldn't be happier with it.

    NEB350VC review

    Posted by Brady on 25th Oct 2015

    After receiving a very nice 20" chessboard (with 2" borders - actual board size is 16") as a gift, I was on a mission to find the perfect pieces to fit it. Mission accomplished. This set it beautiful. It is perfectly sized for my board. The pieces are gorgeous, and have a very nice feel to them. I have always been a fan of the Staunton look, and this set is better looking than anything even remotely close to its price-point. Top it off with very quick shipping and email notices to keep me in the loop, and I feel very happy about my purchase. Highly recommended.

    Writing review for NEB350, chessmen

    Posted by Marty Brenneman on 25th Oct 2015

    I, have been around the world a time or two, and I, must say, I have not seen a better 3.5 Staunton Chessmen. The Knights are the best I have seen, Handcrafted in India, home, and Mother of the game of chess. And being a artist, I look for quality workmen ship in the things I like. If you like a Chess Set you can show off, and play with, then this is it. for the money, you will not do better.
