For a fine uniform finish, we've shielded the pieces with buff-polish instead of lacquer finish. This also ensures the surface is hardy and resistant to scratches & dirt.
Wavy mane for a delicate feel: The knights are precision-crafted. We designed and focus tested over 30 variations before finalizing. Such crafting process requires prior analysis on the wood material before it is sent for processing.
Design Inspiration: The knight of the set is inspired by the Mustang horse. Mustang horses are known for their Strong and Sturdy legs, great intelligence and some of them have a very great feathering or hair growth. The wavy & flowing mane of the knight represents the Mustang in full gallop.
