Description

Antique English chess set, made of bone, in dovetailed wood box.

The red and white pieces are excellent with all pieces present.

The tallest piece is 2 1/2 inches high.

The wooden dovetailed box is the one that contained the pieces when I found them.

The box is in very good condition and is 4 5/8 by 3 1/4 by 2 1/2 inches.

Seller was a collector and said it was a barley corn pattern (?)
