StonKraft Brass Chess Set - Brass Chess Pieces Coins Chessman (31 x 31 cm)

I got this as a gift. It is really beautifully made and the pieces are heavy feels very good quality and looks extremely expensive! I like the fact that the design is also quite unique. Couple of points worth being aware of, it’s very very heavy, you couldn’t transport this frequently. It’s more of a show case board / for special occasions. It’s that beautiful. It had a few scratches on the board and the silver / black colours seemed to be scratched off on tiny parts of the board which is unfortunate considering how beautiful the pattern / board is. It did have a strong smell, I’m guessing from the paint? so I had to air it out and tried a few different methods of cleaning it which helped get rid of the smell but a few days of keeping it out of the box and it was fine. I did want to return it initially or get it exchanged for another one as it is an expensive board and I wanted it to be perfect and something you could gift to someone straight away however I saw this was made by a small family business in Bangladesh and so I felt supporting and helping that side of the world is something that makes this more than just a beautiful board. The few scratches do not by any means take away anything from the beauty of the board it really is that beautiful. It glistens and is definitely a timeless piece. It arrived a big polystyrene set cardboard box which was pretty durable, there was a lovely small pouch for the chess pieces. Overall I am very happy I did not return this, as the person who received it was almost bought to tears upon looking at how beautiful it was. I did tell them there were a few scratches but them knowing that the gift also helped a small family business that side of the world made the gift so much more special! I would definitely recommend the purchase, everything was received on time and it really is a beautiful board. I did want to keep it at one point 😂😂 and my excuse was the scratches! Will definitely buy myself one another time!

Beautiful chess set, hand painted. Theres a nice weight to the chess pieces, and the chess board is a lovely elegant pattern.

Received my set today and although it is beautiful it is a bit different from the one on advertising picture. Pawns are not as detailed and also the board got different pattern. for all of you who saw a video of the chess coming in the red velvet box, don't be fooled cause it doesn't. But overall, nice chess set, good weight and worth the price.

Absolutely stunning chessboard.

Over the moon with this chess delivered on time and in excellent condition,a very happy customer 👍

I bought this item for my best mate for his 40 birthday and the smell after we open the box was unbearable like old dump rancid- even after 60 hours of ventilations we couldn’t get rid of terrible stinch I think from material under chess and chessboard

It’s a beautiful addition to the lounge, too heavy to travel with but that’s not what I bought it for so can’t complain we’ve not played it as yet it was a Christmas present and has only been unpacked a couple of days, I’m not sure what you mean by teaching? Surely you can learn on any board? I guess I’ll find out soon enough!

Beautiful chess set love it but does not come with a case.
