Due to being a hand painted artisan product, every set will be unique and your set will vary slightly in colour from the pictures on our website.

These playing pieces look beautiful on traditional wood and marble boards. A board is not included but we have pictured this set on an 21" Kingston board, though also looks great on any of our 20" boards.
