The Constantine Series really is testament to a craftsmen's aspirations to create nothing less than perfection.
The king has an impressive silhouette displaying a rounded top and decorative spire, influenced by ancient Mughal architecture. His 4.5 inch frame also holds an impressive weight, at 92g. The Queen holds her own next to her majestic king, with an elegant Moor-inspired headdress. Their expressive and graceful styles complement each other perfectly in creating this superior chess set.
Each knight in the set is made by a single master craftsman and these experts achieve consistent perfection. One of the most detailed pieces in the entire Regency Collection, the Constantine knight boasts a long, firebrand mane and a flick of hair covering one eye.
The pieces are all fashioned from solid ebony wood, meaning they are both beautiful and robust. Their exceptional quality and beauty is preserved through exquisite polishing, extending their longevity.
A chess board of at least 21 inches is required to accommodate the Constantine Series chessmen.
