This complete chess set package from Manopoulos includes their Small Archers Chessmen with their Brass and Blue Enameled Chess Board. This chess set is based on the Greek and Roman cultures and their military conquests. The pawns are represented by a row of archers from which this chess set has its name. The king is 1.25 tall with a .5 base. Chess pieces are brass and nickel plated solid cast zinc that are lacquered to prevent the lustrous finish from ever tarnishing. The chess board is 20cm (approx. 8 ) square and has .75 squares. The chess board is brass with enameled blue squares and border. The board is lacquered to prevent tarnishing. This decorative little chess set will fit on any piece of furniture or book shelf and it's small enough to even use as a travel set. But please keep in mind that because of its' small size it is not a practical chess set for playing.
