Chess Set | Romanian Chess Pieces with End Grain Chessboard
Romanian Hungarian Series chessmen are extremely popular in tournaments in Romania and Hungary. The design is a refreshing change from the mundane Staunton-style chess pieces earlier used. The design profile of all the pieces is exceptionally unique, unlike any designs earlier used in chess tournaments. The mane of the knight is uniquely carved with a widened base of the knight's body, making it easy for a chess player to hold and play with. These chessmen are sturdy and are well suited for Blitz or classical games.
