This complete chess set package includes our Napoleon and Wellington Theme Chess Set and Value Walnut and Maple Chess Board. The armies of Napoleon and Wellington met just outside the town of Waterloo in Belgium in what became one of the most famous battles fought in Europe. Napoleon's army was defeated and this became the last big engagement of his military career. Perhaps on the chess board, Napoleon and his chess piece army can beat Wellington and his.
Pieces are made of cast poly-stone, an extremely hard stone-like material and have an amazing level of intricate detail. Each piece is carefully hand painted with realistic colors - even the tiniest details are captured. Our Value Walnut and Maple Chess Board is inlaid with walnut and maple veneers and has a black inlay delimiter separating the squares and frame. The board is finished in a satin polyurethane finish.
