The Regency Chess Company Reviews:
A stunning Staunton-inspired chess set featuring elegant Parthenon ebony and boxwood pieces, paired with a case and deluxe walnut and maple chessboard handcrafted in Spain.
The Parthenon chessmen are deluxe quality, large, elegant and exquisitely finished in ebony and graded boxwood. The design is based on the familiar Staunton lines but has a more classical, columnar look. This is most noticeable in the shape of the long shanks and the angular lines of the bishop's mitre. Each chess piece is well balanced, weighted, and polished to a very high sheen without the use of synthetic waxes or lacquers.
The large deluxe walnut and maple chessboard is made just outside of Barcelona in Spain. The attention to detail is sublime - sub-millimetre sharp lines and inlays are supported by grain-matched playing squares and a robust matt finish lacquered surface. The rich browns, reds and yellows of the walnut really complement the black ebony and yellow boxwood chessmen, creating a very traditional-looking chess set with some subtle hints from classical architecture.
