collectible chess sets a world of there own.


Well I have found another collectible chess set, for my collection. I found this chess set at a medieval themed fair. This collectible chess set, also referred to as, dragon & knight chess set, is nicely done. The chess set can be used as a unique piece of art for the table. As the picture above shows, a dragon atop of the castle, being challenged by the knight. The pieces of this chess set, are finely detailed and by themselves a nice piece of art. I could not believe the different items that where being sold dealing with dragons. I saw again how many things take on a world of there own. Collectible chess sets, dealing with different themes, can make the game new and different every time. I found collectible chess sets, on the medieval theme , of knights against knights with wizards and dragons at their side.This medieval chess set would make a great edition as a collectible chess set. There was also a fantasy type chess set, a fairy chess set, that was very well crafted. Walking around at this fair, I can see the imagination of the people who attended in costume, and their fascination with this period in time. I look forward to going back to another one of these fairs. For like the collectible chess sets I found there, it is a world of its own. Just imagine looking down on the chess sets, and being one of the brave knights, during medieval time, or a dragon & knight fighting to the death. I still believe collictible chess sets take on a world of there own.

COLLECTIBLE CHESS SETS A WORLD OF THERE OWN


To continue on the subject of collectible chess sets and the world of there own they bring with them. Like that of the civil war chess set, and the theme of that period of time, the Chinese warrior chess set brings out that period of time. As a collectible chess set it can set off a room that has a far east or China theme to it. While playing the game, the pieces can bring out the imagination of the players, letting them feel like a Chinese warlord or emperor. I have looked at one version of a Chinese warrior chess set,that can be a nice collectible chess set. The pieces are done in blue and gold coloring, and well crafted resembling that period of time. The playing board sits on a well crafted box that stores all the pieces, for transporting or storage. I have placed a picture of the Chinese warrior chess set above this article, along with a link to its site for further viewing . I would like to hear what other collectors or chess players think about this chess set, and others that I find and talk about. Until my next post on collectible chess sets, I hope to hear from you have a nice day.
