Chessbazaar rolls out a meticulously crafted Magnus Carlsen championship chess set in the wood. Seems to be mouth watering. What do you guys think? Has anyone ordered that?
Its a very nice set, but the King's finial cross will be history after a few blitz games.

hi Mike, yes probably...... correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it a norm for the King, Queen and Bishop to have a "Tripled Collar" (royalty?)
this looks single collar (it seems to have a single collar? )
As always, CB tries to mimic original one, but the result looks a little bit strange..
I mean it is okay, but hard to say perfect.
CB is like Chinese Nike.
I think it looks great! how much?
3 3/4 inch or 952 mm King are standard for FIDE and normally within 10% tolerance as
for USCF I can't say. This set is just over the limit so you are taking your chances!
However, most FIDE / USCF tournaments provide sets also board size should be 2" - 2.25" / square
(As for personal use looks okay!)
