Carved Soapstone 10-in. Chess Set (India)

I was very happy with the quality and the price of the Carved Soapstone chess set. It was reasonable priced and beautiful quality. Details of the chess pieces were wonderful.

I don't really believe this set is up to your standards. The boards on all 3 sets I finally received were not level and there were broken pieces in the first set. It actually took 3 sets to get a complete set. We used the board from one set and the pieces from another to make it work. I still had to touch up a couple of the black pieces with a marker due to tiny chips showing white. This is the first time I have had this type of experience with Overstock. It was handled well on your end and the replacement issue was relatively pain free. I won't order this Chess set for anyone else as a gift but it doesn't diminish the track record over an eight year period with Overstock.

I had seen reviews where there were problems with the chess set arriving damanged, but mine was well packed and arrived without damage. The set is nice, but the pieces are a bit smaller than I had anticipated. All in all I would say this is well worth the money. I bought it for my husband's birthday and he really liked it.

I was quite excited to see the chest set I ordered as a gift. But when we unpacked it and opened it up...quite a different story. It was much smaller than advertised and one of the pieces was broke when we opened it. Quite disappointing-- not very sturdy.

I was very impressed with the quality of the chess set that was sent. It was beautifully made and the pieces were kept in a soft protective coating, each carved very nicely. The only minor hitch was that the top of the black king and queen were slightly scratched leaving a white mark against the black paint. Despite that the peices were beautifully made and the carving was exceptional, in addition the playing board is well designed and put together and holds the pieces well.
