I really like those Ganine gothic pieces.  they remind me of the Oompa Loompa's on Willy Wonka.  

Haha, I've taken a liking to them as well!  They remind me of the huge stone statues in some scenes from The Lord of the Rings.  I just bought a Salon Edition set via eBay to see how they'll fit on a granite board.

Hi Matt , trade you The Simpsons family members

IpswichMatt

No I don't like the Simpsons. People poke fun at me, saying I look like Homer Simpson.

I can't see any resemblance.

You’re spamming.

Well, it's definitely relevant. Don't think it's spamming.

@jay_1944, cool boards! My favorite is the "Cherry and Wenge" tongue.png

I actually tried to look up rules and definitions of spamming in a forum after, and feel it was fine too happy.png    The only spammy part is that it's something for sale... But it is an open forum and my post was on topic, relevant, and only posted once.  Believe this is ok! 

Thanks @Aida_Amin!  Think I like the other better, but the cherry/Wenge definitely has more contrast.

It’s spamming because this is a topic or thread on showing your Chess sets, not showing chess boards you have for sale.  To do that you would get better attention starting a separate Topic.

Well, he's posted a much more relevant comment than the discussion we are having right now. I understand what you're getting at, but just let it go happy.png

Ahh,c'mon!....Give the guy a break.....His subtle and rather polite pitch was completely  innocuous......I didn't view it as spamming at all.

No, that was pretty spammy - aka very spammy.

I now have a gorgeous cute little chess set to go with my antique board. My search is over.

It looks beautiful on my board 😻. 

Terrible photo as it's horribly dull weather here in the UK.
