 History Notes

 A few years back, there was no consistent size and design for a Chess set. This unique chess piece design took shape after the straight-up chess pieces were used before Howard Staunton and made this style its benchmark.

This creation was the favorite among the Chess players in the UK. The different qualities of sets were extrusive in different countries. And most importantly, Chess players often prefer to use their native pieces in-game.
