4 out of 5 starsThe box is well built. Ideally, a smaller size would be available. I would likely buy a 2nd box if I could get a smaller size. The box is excessively large for 99% of chess pieces.

4 out of 5 starsThis a good set of chess and looks even better. However, one of the figures is missing a soft cover on its bottom. So taking one point off. Otherwise, the quality is good, board is good and figures look really stunning
