3 3/4" Mark of Westminster Classics Honey Rosewood Executive French Staunton Chess Pieces

Mark of Westminster Chess Pieces are the paradigm of perfection in wood staunton chess piece design. The premier chess pieces by Mark Of Westminster have been known for their heirloom quality. Each chess set is exclusive, with a lifetime warranty for natural defect. Each set is hand-carved and weighted with felt bottoms, extra queens, and the signature Mark of Westminster Logo beneath the king. The French design is our most popular, with a classic, very playable look and feel.

These chess pieces are Honey Rosewood and Boxwood, which is often paired with Walnut, Teak, or other light to medium brown wood chess boards. Honey Rosewood Chess Pieces are a soft, easy to work with light to medium brown wood. There is a fair amount of grain, and is an excellent choice if you want an inexpensive natural look. Boxwood Chess Pieces are the near universal standard for 'white' chess pieces in hand-carved sets. It is a fairly easy wood to work with, and shows off good detail.

Made in India. Chess board not included. Deluxe humidor style storage box optional.

I just recieved my pieces today. They are well crafted and are of suitable weight, however, The "rosewood" is far less grainey (light & dark grain pattern) than the photos on the website. I've been a woodworker most of my 74 years I am famillar with rosewoods varieties from Brazilian to Indian. The photos look great but the pieces (dark) I recieved are bland in grain structure and the finish is not as lustrous as pictured. I'm dissipointed in the differances between the photo and what I recieved but the price was good.
