JAQUES STAUNTON WEIGHTED BOXED CHESS SET

Dating from the second half of the 19th Century, his Boxwood and Ebony JAQUES Staunton Weighted Chess Set comes in a Mahogany Box with a paper label inside.  The White Knight is stamped Jaques, London and both Black and White Castles and Black and White Knights are stamped with a Red Crown.  All pieces are baized,

The Box has been fitted with a new bottom at some time during its life.  All of the pieces are in unrestored condition.  Their overall condition is good.

The White King has a chip to the cross.  One White Castle has a tiny chip to the crenallation.  One White bishop has a small chip to the top.

The Black King is missing the cross on the top.  There is a small chip to the Crown of the Black Queen and a crack to the base.  The Black Bishop is missing the ball on the top and there is a crack to the base.  There is a tiny chip to the back of one ear of a Black Knight.  One Black Pawn has a chip to the collar and a crack to the base.  Another Black Pawn has a crack to the base.

I have photographed the chips and losses.
