Height of King approx 12cm.

This set represents a romantic period of history when Knights were bold and fought for the honour of a fair maiden. It is based on the myth about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. King Arthur and his queen Guinevere are the main figures with the King holding his fabled sword Excalibur which legend says he pulled out of a stone. The Knight brandishing a sword is Sir Lancelot who was one of the Knights of the Round Table; he is wearing armour and a visored helmet decorated with plumes. sorry chess board is not in the sale with this beautiful chess set. all chess sets are made painted finished or pigmented by myself. there is no factory  workers making the pieces. just a one man band who loves making them. i have many.  and work very hard doing these fine pieces of art. if i supplied these to a shop they would be for sale at over £100. and my uniform pieces at over.£200 so do yourself a favour and grab a real top quality bargain. the finish is done using guilders metallic polishing wax.
