The tales of Reynard the Fox are some of the oldest literary traditions in the Western world and even Geoffrey Chaucer based some of his writing on them. The fables comprise of beasts satirically taking the places of various classic human character tropes, with Reynard the Fox taking centre stage.
These humourous tales have proven so popular that the word 'renard' has replaced the word for fox in French. Reynard himself is a sympathetic hero (although self-seeking and sometimes cowardly) and a strikingly accurate mirror of the human condition.
Based in Somerset, UK, the craftsmen at Berkeley Chess have expertly developed these charming characters into this divine chess set, with a rich, deep cream and cardinal red finish.
