Here we present SAC's range of hand-decorated theme
chess sets. We also sell the same sets as undecorated
versions. Many of SAC's sets depict historic battles,
famous characters from literature or popular figures from
a particular era. These beautiful and decorative sets are
hand-crafted from crushed and powered stone bound up with
pigmented resin. Every chess piece is completely hand made.
From the basic raw materials through to the finished product
every process is carried out by hand. The only exception
is a cleaning and polishing process in which the pieces
are put through special machines. Even these machines have
been developed for particular use in the preparation of
the chess pieces, for, although the pieces are quite durable,
fine details such as noses, horses ear's, swords, daggers
and flag staffs could be snapped of if treated too roughly.
The machines are made to clean the pieces thoroughly but
gently. These intricately detailed pieces are painted
by hand. A team of highly skilled and dedicated artists
carry out this extremely time consuming task. Every piece
receives at least three coats of paint, some pieces might
have as many as six. Please note: For most sets,
we sell our chess
boards separately - for advice on choosing an appropriate
board, call us now on UK freephone 0800 01 888844. |
