Product Description

Almost one thousand years ago the Celtic inhabitants of Ireland rose up under King Brian Boru to fight the invading and colonising Vikings. Based on the battle of Clontarf in 1014 AD, this chess set portrays many characteristics of the era with authentic and historically correct artifacts shown in splendid detail. The skill and workmanship of the Celtic tribes was demonstrated by their artistic and unique designs, recognized throughout the world and reproduced here in this magnificent chess set.

Hand crafted of ground natural stone, and hand decorated by the professional artists of Studio Anne Carlton, this finely detailed chess set makes a beautiful and decorative statement for the home or office. New, in original factory package. All SAC chess sets are packaged in fitted presentation boxes, and are supplied with printed parchment story sheets which give the history of the set and details of the characters.

Studio Anne Carlton chess pieces are highly sought after in the collectible markets. The fact that these highly prized pieces are completely hand made greatly limits production. Consequently many of the earlier sets are returning substantial prices when appearing in secondary markets. The sets are avidly collected by enthusiasts all over the world.

King size = 4.5 inches.
