Description from the seller

Vintage spectacular chess set with solid metal/tin figures representing Christian and Muslim troops from the late Middle Ages during the Crusades. The pieces are highly detailed, with black velvet bases. They are in very good condition despite their age. The playing board, featuring battle scenes, is like new. It comes with a wooden case lined with blue velvet, where the figures are stored. Important: please see the extensive photographs for details and assess the set based on its condition as shown. Specialized packaging will be used due to the item's large size and weight. Shipping outside the European Community, Europe, and independent territories is not included in the shipping price on Catawiki and will incur an additional shipping charge. Ideal Christmas gift.
