The ChessnCrafts William Hallett 1860 Reproduction in Bud Rosewood is one of the most historically significant sets in the collection. The original Hallett design — based on a circa-1840 set from Jon Crumiller's renowned collection — is an aesthetic masterpiece, but authentic antique examples are extraordinarily rare. Most available reproductions have lacked both accuracy and elegance. ChessnCrafts has achieved a high degree of authenticity, crafting this set to be genuinely faithful to the original in both proportion and spirit, using premium Bud Rosewood (African Padauk) and natural Boxwood.

The Bud Rosewood and Boxwood combination brings a warm, natural richness to the Hallett proportions — a pairing that honours the aesthetic character of the original Victorian design. The 19" Bud Rosewood board with 51mm squares is perfectly sized to complement the 3.5" King height, creating a proportionally authentic playing experience.

This set is the choice of serious collectors and chess historians who want to own a genuinely accurate reproduction of one of the most beautiful pre-Staunton designs ever made. The leather storage box ensures your investment is protected with the same level of care that went into crafting it.
