Chavet set advice

Sort:
Avatar of elizabethlee-crowther

I have a Chavet set in a box with felt bottoms. The Knight has eyes. All are in good condition and I would appreciate some help with identification and valuae. I’m unsure what price to ask if I decide to part with it as I’ve hardly used it. It was given to me so unsure of age etc. I bc appreciate any advice. Many thanks Elizabeth

As a new joiner you have to wait like about a week or so to be able to post pictures. You could post the pics somewhere online and post the link here.

You're in luck, we have a sommelier here who knows a lot about Chavet with eyes.

What's the king size? 82mm?

Avatar of elizabethlee-crowther

Yes 82 or 83 mm hard to be exact

I'd say that would be 153/4 which means size 4 (83mm), weighted and felted. About the age, that would be our sommelier to say but judging from the patina and shape of the finials I'd say around 2005-2010?

The storage box is nice that would add the value for sure and if they're straight as in no leaners and no flaws like cracks than I think they're worth 200-230 euro.

That’s brilliant thank you so much - the felt on bottoms Show no sign of wear so I don’t think they have had much use. 
I really am grateful for this advice. I think I will put them up for sale as it seems a shame for them not to be used

You're welcome but this is just my opinion, I'm not an expert so take it with 2 grains of salt if you will happy.png
