Please, curb your enthusiasm. But it would be a nice set if it came with a board...

Here you go

The 1st board is just absolutely beautiful! Where did you get such a board? I have a similar board but, yours is even more stunning!

If the set was just pack incorrectly with 2 stamped rooks and knights. I would get the replacements. If they only made all their knights and rooks with stamps. I would not have bought the chess sets.

This is a reproduction you paid for after all. And that is a big error in the chess set you received.

Here is how the chess set should look...

I intentionally requested for them to be stamped. 😊

That is funny on many levels....cry

This is one of two of my sets. Imperial Knight

Can I know more about this (for me) magnificent play set? The towers are slender and the other pieces look beautiful to me too. I'm looking to buy a final set and this seems like a great candidate.

Thanks

Very pretty chess set. But the board is way to small for my liking with that chess set. The square size looks to be under 2 inches.

The HoS Baku set has been my choice most days, although a small infatuation has crept in (not serious, I don’t think!). I like the clean lines and mass of the Baku.
