The War Admiral does both quietly. Genuine ebony is the material buyers most often ask for and least often get, because ebonised boxwood is cheaper to produce and photographs almost identically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst ebonised sets of similar height, the practical difference is longevity rather than first impressions. Both look right on day one. Only one still looks right after a decade of handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst other genuine ebony sets, the deciding factors are usually king height and carving standard. At 112mm this sits at the taller end of what a 55mm board will take comfortably.

On a piece this size that density matters. The finials on the king and queen hold a crisp edge instead of softening, and the bishop mitre keeps a clean cut rather than a rounded one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe antiqued boxwood on the light side is doing a different job. A bright white piece next to true black can read harsh under a lamp. The antiqued finish knocks the contrast back a step, which is easier on the eye across a long game and sits better against a dark timber board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"TWO_COLUMN_GRID-Ky2vNm9Tsb\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-two-column-grid page_crafter_two_column_grid-Ky2vNm9Tsb\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h3 page_crafter_two_column_heading-Ky2vNm9Tsb page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eWeight, balance and the feel of a move\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_grid_plain_text-Ky2vNm9Tsb     page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set totals roughly 1440 grams across 34 chessmen, which averages a little over 42 grams a piece across the roster. In practice that is a moderate weighting. Enough that a piece settles where you put it and does not slide when a sleeve brushes the board, without the deliberate heft of a double weighted tournament set. The maker notes the figure can vary by around ten percent, since weighting is added by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 44mm king base is the number that governs how the board looks once the pieces are out.

The maker specification calls for a 55mm square size, and that is the figure to buy to. The convention is that a king base should occupy roughly 75 to 80 percent of the square it stands on. A 44mm base on a 55mm square lands at 80 percent, which is why the pairing works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGo smaller, to 50mm squares, and the position starts to feel crowded once the middlegame arrives. Go larger, to 60mm, and the pieces look under scaled on the surface.
