This ensemble presents a harmonious blend of vibrant, captivating colors, with each piece meticulously and precisely fitted by the deft hands of the most skilled and seasoned artisans.

Recognized as the German Staunton, this set is sometimes referred to as a Downhead collection of chessmen. Expertly hewn from blocks of wood, every piece is endowed with a protective layer of felt, ensuring the chessboard surface remains unblemished. The polish applied to these German Staunton chess pieces bestows upon them a natural finish, a testament to the expertise of craftsmen renowned for designing some of the world’s most esteemed and finest chessmen and sets. Each piece is meticulously perfected, displaying a meticulous attention to detail.

A Downhead or German Staunton set is notably distinguished by its knight, featuring running diagonal lines and a determinedly closed mouth, exuding an air of resolute determination. The set’s distinctive character is further brought to life by the resolute rook and meticulously engraved bishop, lending the collection its unique identity. These exquisite Staunton chessmen are handcrafted by the finest and most skilled artisans in Amritsar, India, as proudly presented by Chessgammon.

Complementing this remarkable set is an opulent veneered chess piece storage box, exquisitely fashioned from Mahogany wood.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

We are a family business that focus strictly around customer service and ensuring our customers have a fantastic all round experience. We are also the largest store selling both Chess and Backgammon sets of great variations.

A common question that confuses many, infact there is no official provider of staunton chess pieces. These chess pieces are named after a gentleman, Howard Staunton who put forward a design of chess pieces made with precision and weight to prevent them toppling over. Staunton chess pieces are all manufactured by skilled craftsmen in Amritsar, India.

This is the official Chessgammon store, we are also present on eBay, Amazon and ETSY. However purchasing from the incorrect listing will mean you may be purchasing from a 3rd party dropshipper. This makes it incredibly difficult for you to arrange replacements/ complain about any potential damages. 

We ensure a safe and secure payment checkout pathways, using government approved payment systems and ofcourse Paypal checkout available for safe measure.
