The Monarch series chess pieces in ebony and boxwood represent only the finest quality, materials, and design. The bridled knights display an immense amount of detail and very distinctive styling in their manes. The set itself is undeniably Staunton with a handful of design elements that make this set unique. Some would argue that the queen is the most distinctive piece with an Eastern influence to her design. Only the finest ebony and boxwood have been used to create this super-luxury chess set. Each piece is triple-weighted and felted. As you would expect on a chess set of this caliber, four queens are included.

The standard of craftsmanship on these chess pieces is really quite astounding. The uniformity is the best we have ever seen, and the final finishing and polishing have been done to the highest possible standards.
