The House of Staunton is proud to introduce the Dublin Timeless
Series Chessmen. Part of our Timeless
Collection, it is exact reproduction of the Circa 1820 Dublin Pattern
Chessmen. These Chessmen feature a 4.0" King with a 1.375"
Diameter base and are very heavily weighted. These Chessmen are an
exact replica of the original Chessmen, down to the smallest details!
The Chess pieces are hand carved by our master artisans and crafted out of
the highest grade woods. The Chess pieces are heavily weighted with luxurious
billiard cloth base pads on the other Chess pieces and a beautiful finish. The
design of the Dublin Pattern captures the artistic form and styling of a
quintessential Pre-Staunton Pattern Chess set. The House of Staunton has
recaptured the essence of these magnificent Chessmen and made them available on
a very limited basis.
The most striking aspect of the Dublin Series Chess Set is the
beautiful patina on the Boxwood (White) Chessmen. Our artisans have accurately
captured the rich, golden color commonly found on well preserved antique Chess
sets. As with all of our Chess sets, the Dublin Series
exemplifies a perfect combination of distinct beauty and functionality. It has
been designed to withstand the rigors of practical play while maintaining an
elegance which has become the hallmark of a House of Staunton chess
set. The design, quality and craftsmanship of this set is UNMATCHED by any set
of Chessmen in its price range. Nothing even comes close! |
|
The Chessmen are new and each set consists of 34 Chessmen, including four Queens, a standard that was introduced by The House of Staunton over 10 years ago. The Chess Set comes with a personalized Certificate of Authenticity and an original manufacturer's
plaque indicating the production number, with an adhesive backing that would allow it to be affixed to the underside of a Chess box.
Each set consists of 34 Chessmen, 17 light and 17 dark (including the two
additional Queens.)
