At long last, we have a larger version of the Fierce Knight chess pieces. With its 10.16 cm king, these
ebonised boxwood pieces are a welcome addition to this particular size range of chess pieces. Each piece starts its life as a solid piece of wood that is expertly turned and skillfully hand crafted. To create the black pieces, a set in natural boxwood go through a treatment called ebonisation. It's a long and painstaking process but the results are certainly worth the wait to create the appearance of ebony, without its price tag and it also further protects the wood.
Because of the quality of finish and weight of the Fierce Knight Chessmen, we expect this version to become one of the best sellers on the Regency Chess website. They have a solid feel in the hand and with their height and detailing look very regal and elegant. Most pleasing to the eye. These large pieces are nicely weighted and naturally polished with plush flocked bases in green. This set also boasts two additional queens for promotion. This is still relatively unusual in sets in this price bracket. The Fierce Knight Chess Men are great for home and tournament use and would be suitable for pairing with boards of
50.80 cm or more.
