Description from the seller

Don Quixote de La Mancha Chess

The pieces are made of copper and tin, with fabulous detailing. They represent the characters from Miguel de Cervantes' novel, Don Quijote, Dulcinea, Sancho Panza, Rocinante, and the windmills.
The windmills deserve special mention—they are spectacular.
The king piece, 'Don Quijote', stands 7.5 cm tall, and the pawn, 'Sancho', 5 cm.
They are lacquered, which keeps them shining as brightly as on the first day.
The board/box for the pieces is made of wood, beautifully decorated along its edges, with fairly large dimensions, 6 cm high and 33 cm wide.
A wonderful opportunity to own a marvelous chess set that evokes Miguel de Cervantes' novel. Discontinued for more than 40 years.
The condition of the set is PERFECT, like new, as can be seen.
It will be shipped in appropriate packaging to protect it during transport. With a tracking number
