    I am actually quite fond if the Lewis Chessmen. The stash they were found in actually had enough pieces for 4 sets. There are warring hypotheses as to their origins, but my personal favorite has them being made in Iceland by a woman renowned for her ivory carving named Margaret the Adroit.

    What about the Japanese Imperial family? I'm curious about the things they have.

    With chess pieces that look like these, I would be too distracted to think seriously about my next move.
    Most of the sets are lovely though, so, thanks for sharing.

    I think there is a chess set from Scotland that was found on a dig. It was carved out of wood. The passing of the checkmate King was ironic. Goes to show Chess can be stressful. Especially if you don't like to lose. 😆
