Deluxe Chess Sets is proud to introduce our newest masterpiece - The Anderssen DropJaw Series Chess Set. Part of our Timeless Collection, the Anderssen DropJaw 1854 Series Chess set is exact reproduction of the Jaques of London Chessmen Circa 1854 Anderssen DropJaw Staunton Pattern Chessmen. These Chessmen feature a 2.875" King with a 1.6" Diameter base and are very heavily weighted. These Chessmen are an exact match to the original detail, down to the smallest details!

The most striking aspect of the Anderssen DropJaw Series Chess Set is the beautiful patina on the Boxwood (White) and Genuine Ebony (Black) Chessmen (shown in image above). Our artisans have accurately captured the rich, golden color commonly found on well preserved antique Chess sets. Simply put, these Chessmen look like they could very well be over 150 years old!

FINANCIAL COMPARISON
Actual Circa 1854 Jaques of London Anderssen Dropjaw Pattern Staunton Chess sets with a 2.875" King historically sell for upwards of $2,000 USD at auction. To put this number in context, please consider the fact that Chess pieces of this age always have some blemishes, such as dirt, cracks, chips, dings, patina discoloration and possibly replacement pieces. Here's your opportunity to purchase an exact reproduction of these legendary Chessmen, in Pristine Condition, for a fraction of the price.

The Chessboard/s shown in this listing are for photographic purposes only and are not included with the purchase of these Chessmen.
