“Bought this chess set for our kids who had been playing on what looked like a cardboard sheet wrapped in clingfilm bought from the school fayre a few years back for 99p. This set the new one is a massive upgrade. Its really nice wooden board and peices. Seriously, for the money I doubt you could get better and in a quaint home counties artisan gift shop youd probably pay double for similar. Very impressed obviously.”
“I have bought 34 products from Jaques and like this one they are all excellent, well made, strong and offers hours of family fun. I use this for my minded children and they love playing with it and the other products. I can not fault them and we be purchasing more from this company. I also really appreciate the little notes that come with each product.”
“I am absolutely delighted, the board and pieces are beautifully made and finished, wrapping and packaging fantastic. I will be buying more from Jaques. Highly recommended”
“What should be really great chess little set is somewhat spoiled by an array of careless flaws.Some pieces have noticeable chips, are incorrectly filed, have missing felt, or are simply a bit wonky.The board itself is nice enough only for a noticeable scuff where the lacquered finish looks to have been sanded.Overall, its not completely awful when you consider the price. A cheap a portable set.”
“I asked my son to open this as it is a gift to him,we were bowled over by the beautiful way it had been packaged and the quality of the whole set is fantastic.I was not expecting it to be so lovely,my son was so impressed he put it all back and said he didnt want to take it out again in case it got damaged ! However we are looking forward to the game. Jaques is definitley recommended. Thank you.”
