“I love chess, and I wanted to introduce my son to this amazing game. My choice was Jaques as their quality is high. Everything is fine, but the chessboard needs some improvement as it tends to fold. Anyhow, it is a great product but not for five stars.”

“For 30 pounds this chess set did not disappoint. All pieces are handcrafted and the board is very well presented. I was a but dubious as a lot of travel chess sets feel cheap. This set is well made and perfect for those games in a cafe.”
