The Jaques of London vintage Chess Set has Arrived from Across the Pond.

The vintage Jaques of London chess set has arrived today. The chess set was purchased for $50 dollars on June 3rd, 2024.

The vintage Jaques of London chess set arrived undamaged and in perfect condition. And as was shown in the photos on Etsy.

The Jaques of London vintage chess set is in almost mint condition for the resale shop in the UK.

The chess set is beautiful. But does need some upgrades to make this $50 vintage chess set come up to modern standards.

As shown in the photo the finishing is substandard, and the pieces lack felt. Weighting is not required on a chess set this small.

So for a couple of dollars. I will refinish this vintage chess set. And add felt to this beautiful vintage chess set from Jaques of London. And it will make a great addition to my playing and study chess sets.

DKW, that is a nice old set, love the graphics they used on the label of rhe box.

Just out of curiosity, what is the set that is on the shelf behind the table in the background? Can you show some up close photos of that set? The one behind the chess clock...

Thanks for sharing-

@DKW What a great buy and a great-looking set.
