I just ordered this set from a seller in Slovenia. It looks like a simplified Vienna Coffeehouse style. I can't wait for it to get here. The board is 31x31 cm (12.25 x 12.25 in), so it is more of an analysis size, and it will be easier to move around.
Jaques Fischer - Spassky set.
Cat loves it 
Thanks for the info - informatica!

Copycat--that's my set, too. ;-)
Kind of bought what looks to be antique. Cost a little bit and gonna give it to my dad. He has been wanting a chess set like this for a while. I'm sure he will appreciate it. Not sure the actual price but the chess pieces are made of camel bone and the board is made of redwood. It was hand carved in Egypt. What y'all think and how much would it go for normally? Can't seem to find anything about it online.
Hi guys I'm pretty new here but I would like to share chess set that I just made recently. Chess pieces have gold plated details on them. Also if you want to see video and how I made it I have a diy post here http://imgur.com/a/IjYps

I like gold 
Very creative. Well crafted. Kudos.
Whew! Thanks, Ron. For a second there I thought I was in Australia.
Maybe that's why there are no Australian teams in the Pro Chess league 😀!

Only magnetic sets work in Australia.
