These chess pieces are identical replicas of the original Isle of Lewis chess pieces that were discovered off the coast of Scotland. These chess pieces are considered priceless and are on display at the museum of London and Edinburgh. They were also used in both Harry Potter movies. Created by the skilled artisans at Studio Anne Carlton (One of the best known Chess houses in the world), these polyresin composite crushed stone pieces maintain the look, feel and weight of stone, but the durability of plastic, making them the best of both worlds. Their Chess products are highly sought after by Chess collectors and aficionados alike. Now, you have the chance to own these beautiful heirlooms. The King is 3 3/4 inches tall. (Because of the size of these chess pieces, we recommend a chessboard with at least 2 inch squares). |
