Description from the seller

Napoleonic Wars Chess

Magnificent set inspired by the Napoleonic wars. The pieces are very unique for a chess game, with reproductions of cannons from the early 19th century (very beautiful), in addition to Napoleon, the Arc de Triomphe in Paris... with a height of 7 cm for the King and 4.5 cm for the cannons. The pieces are made with great detail in zinc and copper. They are very heavy.

The board is a wooden, screen-printed surface with historical motifs from different battles, such as the Battle of Borodino in Russia or the Battle of Toulon, Napoleon's first victory that made him a general. It is large, measuring 45 cm by 45 cm. The board together with the pieces create a beautiful visual effect, resulting in a very elegant set. It is a chess set that captures Napoleon's historical events.

The set includes a checkers game that faithfully reproduces the coins of the eighteenth century.

The set is in EXCELLENT CONDITION. Only the board shows very slight signs of aging that are imperceptible to the naked eye.

It will be shipped in appropriate packaging to protect it during transit, with a tracking number.
