a-charlemagne-pearwood-part-chess-set

April 04, 2013

Please note that this is a part-chess set of 30 pieces (one "lighter coloured" bishop and one "darker coloured" pawn are missing). The 'lighter coloured" king crown is chipped (and missing its cross), and the "lighter coloured" queen has a chipped crown and is missing her sceptre. The "darker coloured" rook is missing two finials near to the base of the tower. The "darker coloured" king's crown is chipped, as is the "darker coloured" queen's crown. One white knight has a chipped front leg or hoof. There's also a chip to the "lighter coloured" king's base. Otherwise, nicely carved and in excellent condition.
