The Imperial Staunton chess pieces have an elegant design that has been worked out down to the last detail. The knight in this set has an elaborate head shape including a mane and erect ears. The rook has rounded merlons and thus differs from the classic rather plain design. The chess pieces are heavily weighted at the base making them a delight to hold and play with.
