“There are almost no words to do justice to this beautiful piece of art... almost
Let's start though with the packaging. Barbarian hordes would have struggled to unwrap it! It was so well protected and sealed, "unboxing" took some time...thank you for the care taken.
What greeted us on lifting the lid took our breath away. The look, the touch, the smell of the wood, oh this time, there really are no words.
We've not broken the seal. This treasure is a gift for our son on his 21st birthday next week and we cannot wait to see his face (and hours) when the rest is unveiled. I think I really will video that”
“The chess set is really so beautiful. The board made from trees felled on TCD grounds with magnificent pieces made of Mullingar pewter. It comes with a lovely wooden storage box shaped like a book, with an etching of the campanile on the front. A treasure to be passed through the generations of our family ♟”
“`Superb. The pieces are quite stunning in detail. Makes chess far more interesting. The board made from trees on campus creates a link with my alma mater”
