It answers a different question: what an army looks like once everything that can break has been designed out of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knight is a rounded, robust head with no sharp projecting edges, the bishop mitre is a clean cut, and the finials are short and blunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeside a heavily carved club set it looks plain. Beside the same set after two years in a bag, it looks intact. The pieces step down in small increments and three of them share one base width, so the silhouettes do the identifying work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface is the quiet decision that matters more than it sounds. A glossy shank moves under the fingers when a move is made quickly. Satin gives the grip back, which matters far more in play than the shine does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board wants 50mm to 55mm squares, and 55mm is the more comfortable of the two.

The dark army is boxwood carried to a warm red brown by stain, so the grain stays legible under the colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat gives the pieces more life in them than a flat dark army has, and against untreated boxwood the two sides separate cleanly enough to read from across a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is worth knowing that a deep knock which goes through the colour will show paler timber underneath. That is the trade that comes with a stain, and it is not a fault in this set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRosewood against antiqued boxwood is the quieter pairing, and it changes both armies at once. The dark side is naturally dark timber with open grain and real variation piece to piece, so there is no colour layer to break through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe light side is antiqued, which takes the glare off it and leaves a mellowed tone. Neither army shouts, and the whole thing looks settled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two sides are still perfectly distinct in play, because the difference in tone reads instantly. Everything else about the options is identical: same shapes, same dimensions, same weight, same square window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLooking after it is straightforward. Keep the set out of direct sunlight and away from heaters and vents, which is what makes turned hardwood check. Dust with a dry soft cloth, skip oil and furniture polish, which yellows boxwood unevenly, and keep solvent based cleaners away from the stained option, because they lift colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"TWO_COLUMN_GRID-Lt3vVi4Qox\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-two-column-grid page_crafter_two_column_grid-Lt3vVi4Qox\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h3 page_crafter_two_column_heading-Lt3vVi4Qox page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eOur expert take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_grid_plain_text-Lt3vVi4Qox     page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a set for somebody who is going to play with it. The minimalist drawing is a durability decision first and a style one second, and every place a conventional Staunton carries a thin edge, this one carries a blunt one instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePut that with the satin finish and a sensible 1,050 grams and you get an army that handles quickly, tells itself apart by shape under a clock, and survives being carried around every week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe caveat is what you give up.
