Description:
Exquisite Russian chess set made in the form of tint hand-painted soldiers. Brings back the memories of the famous Battle on Ice (1242) where Alexander Nevsky crushed the Crusaders on the ice of the Chudskoe Lake, winning an important battle for Russia. Dimensions: 3 inches high figurines. 14 x 14 inches wooden board (coated with 5 layers of lacquer). This chess set is very heavy (as the chess themselves are made of tint). That is why shipping is expensive. The whole set is truly unique and one of a kind (as each soldier is hand made and hand-painted). Imported from St. Petersburg, Russia. Ships: within 7-10 business days.
