3.5" William Hallett 1860 London Reproduced Chess Pieces Set in Ebony Wood + 19" Ebonywood chess board(51mm sq) + Leatheret Storage box

The ChessnCrafts William Hallett 1860 Reproduction in Ebonywood presents the same historically faithful design as the Bud Rosewood edition — but rendered in the deep, natural black of premium Ebony Wood. The Hallett design originates from a circa-1840 set in Jon Crumiller's celebrated collection — one of the most aesthetically refined pre-Staunton designs ever created. Original examples are vanishingly rare, and most reproductions have failed to capture both the accuracy and elegance of the original. ChessnCrafts has achieved a genuine level of authenticity in both proportion and craftsmanship using natural Ebony Wood and Boxwood.

In Ebonywood, the Hallett proportions take on a darker, more dramatic character — the deep natural black against pale Boxwood creates a sharp, striking contrast faithful to the bold Victorian aesthetic. The 19" Ebonywood board with 51mm squares pairs perfectly with the 3.5" King height for an authentically proportioned playing experience.

This set is ideal for collectors and chess historians who prefer the Ebonywood aesthetic in their reproduction pieces. The leatherette storage box keeps your set protected between games and display, maintaining its collector-grade condition over time.
