Vintage Onyx & Chess Playing Pieces
White & Green
Some Repaired Broken Pieces & Chipping
Item Description
Here is a nice set of classic medieval style chess playing pieces for your buying consideration. Would make a great gift or keep for yourself!
A Buyer recently was awarded this item, but then never paid. So, the item is available again for your buying advantage!
These chess playing pieces are being offered to you at a price below what you would see in a fine game shop or another online store. We have been selling fine items out of our home for over 35 years. We are therefore better positioned to control our acquisition costs, keep commission costs low (if applicable), and finally, we don't have the overhead that the hobby shops and higher end online stores have to pass on to their clients.
The chess pieces are made of some sort of onyx stone. Nice classic medieval design to the playing pieces. There is no felt on the bottom of the pieces. There are a few pieces that have been damaged over the years and have been glued back together. A green pawn and rook had their bases broken off and were re-glued together. A white rook has a broken base that has been glued back together. A small chip still exists. The green king is missing the top cross. The one set is colored white and the other set is a green/brown color. Some chipping loss to the stone on other pieces. Take a look at the pictures closely to see what we are noting here. We would venture to guess that the chess set dates back to the 1950s, to 1960s. Not sure of the maker or country of origination of either the pieces or the game board. Don’t be shy to make an
offer, we are always open to reasonable suggestions.
Ignore the UPC number provided here. Not directly relevant to the piece as they were not issuing those numbers when this item was made, but the store requires a number that does not actually exist for this specific item.
Make
sure that this item meets your needs and requirements before
deciding to acquire it. The item can be returned, there is a 15% restocking fee to do so. So, please carefully review all the attached pictures, ask all the questions you have, come
see in person or send a friend to see the item on your behalf,
prior to deciding to acquire it.
The pictures provided both complement and
supplement the listing description, so please look at them very closely as
well. With old items, there is no way one can capture all the little
imperfections in words, so the two media are meant to be the full description. We do have game boards available for sale separately on our site, please feel free to take a look.
Please check out our other Timeless Tokens store listings as we are
regularly adding new items. We specialize in antique and vintage artwork, books,
