These chess pieces are a fantastic reproduction of 1852-55 Harrwitz Staunton Chess Pieces. They have been reproduced using actual antique pieces of this model , thus all the details are accurate to a tee. The original Harrwitz series was made with a 3.5" King, thus justifying the size of its reproduction. These chess pieces have wide, squatty bases and a low center of gravity, thus making them very stable and perform brilliantly on a chess board.
