With a distinguished legacy in manufacturing the world’s most prestigious chess sets, Jaques history with the king of games is a lengthy one. With centuries of skilful artisan experience handed down through generations of games-makers, Jaques of London are widely renowned as the world’s oldest games manufacturers and proud creators of the spectacular Staunton chess board design. The design of the Staunton chess pieces promotes the king as the highest piece on the table (due to its importance, probably) with heights varying from 3.5” to 4.5”. The King is carved with a crown and a cross sign on top of it, the Queen is smaller, wearing a coronet and a small ball on the top, while the Knight has the shape of a horse head. The Rook looks like a tower with crenellated battlements, the Bishops are determined by a mitre, while the Pawns have only a ball on the top. Each one of the pieces has its base covered in felt (or even leather in most recent, luxury sets).
