The Birth of the Staunton Pattern Design: Named after Howard Staunton, the first Staunton set was produced by John Jaques of London. Designed for functionality and large-scale production, its rugged, stable bases prevented tumbling.
A Piece of Art: Handcrafted in India, this reproduction of the 1849 Staunton design reflects unparalleled craftsmanship. The base of the kings bears our brand stamp, and expert carvers have meticulously refined every detail, resulting in a true masterpiece.
New Ivory White (Boxwood): The 1849 Staunton set in a striking white color showcases meticulous carving. This exceptional chess set takes nearly a week to craft, making it truly unique.
Uniformity of Pieces: Turned pieces are shaped using metal profiles, ensuring identical designs, especially for pawns. Hand-carved knights may have slight variations.
Weights: Heavily weighted with lead for a premium feel, ensuring durability when stored in a dry, clean place.
Felts: Thick green felt covers the base of each piece for smooth board movement.
The original 1849 Staunton Jaques sets are rare and expensive, often selling for thousands of dollars. Chessbazaar has worked hard to make this reproduction affordable while preserving the original design's essence.
Whether you're a collector or looking for a unique chess set, the 1849 Staunton reproduction is a must-have.
