Battle of Culloden
Item Code: SAC-A161

From £ 112.80 inc. V.A.T.     ($176.64 USD)

Made from resin, and sculpted with great attention to detail and authenticity, this set shows the two sides, English and Scottish, and the most important characters of the era prior to the famous battle at Culloden in 1746.

The lower portion of the image shows the set hand decorated with two principal colours. The chess pieces identify Bonnie Prince Charlie, leader of the Scottish clansmen, with faithful Flora MacDonald as the Queen. Their English opponents are led by King George's son, the Duke of Cumberland.

Not illustrated is one of the most luxurious chess sets, The Battle of Culloden set beautifully hand-painted throughout. Only a small number of these sets are produced each year, making them highly prized by collectors. The King height in each instance is 4 3/4 inches and are suitable for a board with square size 2 or 2 1/8 inches.
