The Regency Chess Company Reviews:
Distinctive and characterful chess set matching the Blackmore series sheesham chessmen with a very high-quality mahogany and maple chessboard.
The chess pieces have been sourced from what we believe is the world's finest producer of wooden chessmen. They have been expertly made from clean-grained boxwood and sheesham, a rich, golden wood that is full of stunning grains and tones. The design of the chessmen encompasses a very distinctive shank. While the design remains firmly in the Staunton camp, the straight shanks have become curved, and vice versa. This makes the rook the most distinctive and original of the set, with a smooth, curved body, as opposed to the usual tapered design.
The pieces have been weighted in their bases to acquire just the right amount of balance, and their proportions make them extremely satisfying to play chess with.
The supplied wooden chessboard is constructed from veneers of European mahogany and birch and is finished in a robust satin lacquer. A large set that measures almost 55cm across, it will certainly take pride of place in the home.
