Description from the seller
Beautiful cast bronze and silver-plated chess set. The theme of the figures refers to the Crusades, featuring Templar knights and their battles against the Arabs. All the pieces are solid, with blue felt on the bases, and are in very good condition. The game comes in a wooden-style box that, on the other side, is marked as a chess and checkers set, including its pieces, dice, and other game boards inside. The overall condition is very good despite its age; it is well preserved and can be appreciated and observed. A detailed photo report is included for assessment and consideration of the details. It will be specially packaged for shipping to prevent breakage. Shipping outside the European Community or to non-Independent countries is not included in the listed price and will incur an additional shipping cost. An ideal Christmas gift.
