It was my gift to a friend’s son; he was very pleased with it, but I can’t really review it.
Good set and the storage box keeps things organized nicely.
I bought these chess pieces to use as a part of a library set. A library set can be used for both analysis and play. They are artfully carved out of wood and come with a very economical price. No need to say I am very glad to buy them.
Service is exceptional. Item quality was very good, considering the price. Definitely would recommend!
Bought this for my niece who has expressed an interest in chess. The pieces are nicely boxed and look like it will be a great beginner set to match an heirloom chessboard that my father made when he was a boy.
