The pieces were rugged with heavy stable bases which did not tumble easily. The rooks were turned to look solid castles, the pawns were minimalist but refined, the bishops had simple mitres, the tall king was distinguished with a cross finial and the queen with coronet. This functional design of chess pieces was taken very well by chess enthusiasts and it became very popular quickly. Later it became the only design accepted by FIDE for tournaments. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA piece of art:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handcrafted in India, by the passionate designers of chessbazaar whose wish is to present you with the most wonderful reproduction of Antique 1865-70 Steinitz Staunton Pattern Chess Set.
