I’ve never experienced such attentive customer service

I’ve never experienced such attentive customer service. They messaged me personally to confirm the spelling of the name for the engraving and even suggested a nicer font style. The pieces are beautifully weighted and the board looks like a handcrafted piece of art. Couldn’t be happier

The 2-in-1 combo set is fantastic. Both games look high quality, and it’s perfect for travel since everything stores inside neatly. Excellent value.

Superb tournament-size backgammon board

Superb tournament-size backgammon board. The dice cups feel high-end and the doubling cube is beautifully made. Worth every penny.

The leather backgammon set is amazing

The leather backgammon set is amazing. The stitching is neat, the colours are vibrant, and the checkers glide smoothly across the surface. It’s now our family’s favourite game night set

1972 Ebonised Reykjavik Broadbase Staunton Chess Pieces 3.75 Inch

The Reykjavik Staunton Chess Series, alternatively known as the Bobby Fischer, Jacob Knight, or Jacques Staunton Series, adopts different names depending on the chess store you visit. The term “Reykjavik series” draws inspiration from the infamous chess tournament held in 1972 in Iceland. This tournament witnessed a historic match between chess masters Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky, with Fischer emerging as the victor in the final championship—an event hailed as one of the best in chess history. The Jacques Staunton name is associated with this set as it was initially introduced by Jacques of London. Today, these Staunton chess pieces are reproductions of the classic design, meticulously crafted by highly skilled artisans based in Amritsar, India. Each piece is carved from solid blocks of wood, ensuring durability and stability. The pieces are heavily weighted, offering a comfortable and stable chess-playing experience. Additionally, a layer of soft green felt on each piece protects your chess board from any potential damage.
