“Absolutely perfect! Beautifully crafted”

I was looking for a chess set to replace a set that had been broken. We had purchased our original set whilst on holiday in Mexico back 2011. There is a slight colour variant to our original set but this is a perfect replacement to help me reminisce of such a happy time spent with my husband. And now I have a new set which I can now share with our children as well, teaching them how to play and making memories as a family. Thank you so much for this beautifully crafted set. The attention to detail is brilliant

“Lovely Little Green Apple”

This apple reminds me of Bobby Goldsboros song LIttle Green Apples. I did not know that onyx could be green. It is the perfect color for this sculpture. Right now it is my one and only paperweight. I think it might also make a wonderful kitchen decoration.
