Marvels of grace, balance, beauty and simplicity... This is THE classic set that established a worldwide standard used since the mid-19th C. Study the King's crown and Queen's coronet, details of bishops and rooks, knights modeled after marble stallion heads from the Parthenon, on down to the diminutive pawn. Admire the simple, yet elegant contours. Well-weighted. Shaped to hold, to touch, to admire... To be gazed at in unwavering and total concentration.

Our production is a detailed replica of an original ivory set manufactured by the British 'Jacques' company, circa 1850, and purchased at a 1990s London auction. English chess master, Howard Saunton, promoted this set at the first international chess tournament in 1851. It's clearly distinguishable pieces soon became the competition standard known as the 'Staunton' set.

  • DEEP Fritz 13
    Chess programs have been high-performance utilities for a long time now. The higher your system performance, the greater the value they will be to you. But multi-processor systems only work if you have a "deep" version, because it is only then that the program can make use of multiple processor cores in parallel. Things are no different with the new Deep Fritz 13: on a dual-core computer the engine is already approx.60% faster than the regular Fritz 13.
