Royal House Antiques

The Battle of Bannockburn was a brief moment in time that changed the history of Scotland. An epic tale no better told than in the trilogy “The Bruce” by Scottish Historical Novelist Nigel Tranter, a book and volume of heritage which inspired the creation of this (so far) modestly historic Chess set.
While Nigel Tranter is not longer with us, his legacy lingers wherever these magnificent pieces are ghosted across this equally magnificent chess board. Wherever you are in the World, and whether you are fiercely Scottish or merely intrigued, this piece of history in the making is for you and your family to own and to cherish for generations to come.
The board is covered with Scottish heritage, it is sublime, all the original collectors information and documents are included along with the custom made case, this suite is sublime
The condition is brand new in the box never played and only removed to take the pictures, the only downside is two thin spear tips have broken off, otherwise its absolutely perfect
