The history behind this American Revolutionary War chess set

In 1783, British King George III decided that he must punish the disobedient colonists in North America for their refusal to submit to his authority and pay taxes to the British Crown. So, he sent his army, commanded by Lord Cornwallis, to subdue the revolutionaries. What ensued can only be described as revolutionary; a series of battles and engagements to claim independence from the British Crown.

We’re certain this handmade chess set is the right fit for you. Since 1969, our work has been in a calibre of its own, standing the test of time due to the utmost care and detail we put into each and every set.
