The contrasting finials are genuinely useful as well as handsome, lifting the royal pieces out of an all black back rank in a way that matters under poor light. The mitreless bishop is the part to think about: it removes the single fastest identification cue on the board, and while most people adjust within a few games, some never stop double checking. Triple weighted genuine ebony at 1,456g is honest value at this price.
