Beautiful set, I opted for the Zagreb '59 - 3.875" King with the same woods and couldn't be happier with it as I particularly appreciate the old soviet style pieces, a different but elegant knight, and replacing the cross with the sleeker ball finial (and if I had to pick something else, I'd go for the other Soviet era Fischer set, the Dubrovnik).
Hey Nelson, I have just purchased the EXACT same set , but my Black pieces are Ebony, not Rosewood . I also got a beautiful chess board, with notation . Interesting to note the detachable base on the AMAZING Knights, & the head of the King . All hand made in India, the home of Chess
Hi Nelson ... do you think it's possible that haven such beautiful knights might make a player subconsciously over-value the piece in a game? Under most circumstances, I'm willing to trade knight for a bishop but on seeing the lovely knights from your new set but immediate thought was that I'd want to keep my knights on the board as long as possible.
Hi Nelson , love this channel I think it's one of the most informative channels on the internet , especially for players like me who really need to learn this great game 👍 but I was gonna suggest maybe you could do some videos using an actual chess set and board ? Just an idea but please keep the videos coming 🙏🙏
I was using an 'ordinary' set to practice on when my son moved his rather more splendid set out to make more room for his girlfriend when she came to stay & suddenly the set I was playing on just wasn't good enough! Got a new board to accompany the pieces which looks like yours, but have to say my son's looks much better & prefer his less extravagantly carved pieces too, though I find the pieces so wonderful, it is rather a distraction!
e4 Lovely set by the way. I was tempted by that blood rose wood colour. I just had memories of my dads jet black set and wanted something similar. Really nice though 👍 Also, I reckon you could use those serated knights as a weapon if you needed to 😊
Hello, i found really cool puzzle. I want you to do video about this. Here is the starting position: White: g2,h2, Ka5. Black: Ka3, g5, h6 White to play and win
Nice video. I like your instructional videos more since you cover such specific things that most never cover it but I can really get why you would want to share a new chess set. Especially when they are that nice. I also think a subscribers vs you game would be interesting
By the sheer size of this set, I'd say it's almost impractically huge. Imagine playing this and having to reach all the way across the board to move a piece.
Ugh. Many of those pieces look ugly. They're just wrong. Those extra horizontal ridges round the pawns' heads and the kings' crowns only make them unrecognisable. If the idea was that's where you pick them up, they already have collars for that. The king's crown is supposed to be smooth around the side.
I'm really glad you addressed the vertical video thing. I normally hate on vertical video pretty hard. Thanks for sharing the review!

An amazing Set. I like the rosewood pieces too. Amazing handcraft, especially the knights.

What would a good electronic chess (or windows) to set up sample problems and play against - under $500 and not too technical.
you show us this set in the video with presents for dad
D4! London Opening. (Nice looking set.)

Size is everything

Obese royal dude slower to outflank but storming in one-to-one melees 😂😁😁
