“I bought this chess set as a Christmas present for a nephew aged seven who has just taken up chess with great enthusiasm. I chose this particular set because, as a former player, I have always admired the Staunton pattern especially as reproduced by Jaques. Because it is to be a present I have not opened the packaging but, based on the photograph on the Amazon website, I have no doubt that it will be much appreciated, not least because it can be readily transported from home to school and back.”
