I really like Staunton Castle's Leningrad design. The size of the pieces is great, the styling is fantastic, and this ebonized set looks really sharp, with the high contrast between the two players' pieces. The particular set that I received has a minor problem: one of the pawns was cut slightly, but noticeably, smaller than the others. I suspect this is a one-off, uncommon issue, as I have several chess sets from Staunton Castle and all of the other pieces have been practically perfect. I'm overall pleased with this set.
These chess pieces look really nice in shesham and boxwood. The design is very nice, combining classis Staunton styling with knights that look more like the ones found in a Zagreb set. I'm very pleased with these.
I don't know if I like this set better, or the burnt rosewood version. I ordered both. The rosewood is beautiful, but there is something special about the burnt chess pieces in this set. While not quite as black as ebony or ebonized pieces, they have a nice contrast between the two player's pieces, and the craftsmanship is impressive
These chess pieces really impress everyone who sees them set up on my board. The size is nice, and the styling is wonderful.
Beautiful workmanship, great artistry
This chess set is beautiful. The pieces are smooth and well-made, and the board feels solid. I love how natural the wood looks. Really happy with this purchase
This wooden chess set adds a refined touch to my office. Everyone who visits comments on it. Whether you play or just appreciate fine craftsmanship, this is a must-have.
This is an extremely well crafted chess set. I am very pleased with my purchase. beautiful but sturdy pieces. Meant to be played on a board over and over again
Very nicely carved set. Finishing was also very good. Really enjoying the very subtle striping in some of the ebony pieces. Excellent value.
I love similarly designed knights, and while I own similar designs from different companies, this one is incomparably superior.
I'm also grateful for the custom service for the e-board. Thanks to you, I can now play with this wonderful set every day.
Meticulous and beautifil !!
I love these pieces. Not only the style, but the antiquing on the boxwood pieces is the perfect shade for a reproduction of a set from 1849. It looks great on my Carton Pierre mousepad board that I have. I am very, very satisfied.
Staunton Castle is unsurpassed among the many makers in Amritsar India. When the best quality is essential, SC never fails. Delighted to have another work from Mandeep Saggu. Thank you.
Even though it’s handcrafted, it’s built solidly for real play. I use it nearly every day with friends and family. The pieces are easy to grip, the board is well-proportioned, and the aesthetic never gets old.
Very, very well packed! It is also beautiful; I couldn’t be happier
