his English vs. Scottish Chess Set brings the drama of medieval Britain to the board, featuring English forces led by Edward “Longshanks” in red and Scottish forces led by Robert “The Bruce” in green. Each piece is crafted from durable polystone and hand-painted with exceptional detail, capturing the armor, attire, and personalities of knights, generals, and foot soldiers. The 3.25-inch kings and finely detailed figures make each game historically inspired and visually engaging.
The set is paired with our Green Ash Burl & Erable Deluxe Chess Board, handcrafted by Rechapados Ferrer in Spain. The green-stained ash burl highlights natural variations in the wood grain, while the high-gloss polyurethane finish provides a glass-like elegance. A triple inlay pinstripe (white-black-white) around the playing area and an extra-wide frame, along with 1.75-inch squares on the 17.75" x 17.75" x 0.5" board, create a sophisticated and striking backdrop for the hand-painted theme pieces.
Combining historical accuracy, artistry, and playability, this English vs. Scottish chess set is perfect for collectors, history enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a display-worthy and engaging centerpiece for home or office.
