Studio Anne Carlton (SAC) takes great pride in the artistry and craftsmanship of their classic chess sets, and their Roman Chess Set is no exception. This timeless design beautifully captures figures from the Roman era, showcasing the power and grandeur of one of the largest empires in history. The skilled designers, sculptors, and craftsmen at SAC demonstrate exceptional skill and attention to detail in their collection of UK handmade chess sets and European chess boards. Each piece is meticulously crafted to achieve a rich finish and remarkable quality that is admired across five continents. This variation adds a unique touch to each set, as each painter imbues their own style and creativity into the pieces. Please note that due to the intricate hand-painted process, the hand-painted variation requires approximately four weeks to complete, ensuring the highest level of craftsmanship and individuality. Since its establishment in 1969, SAC has been dedicated to the manufacturing and distribution of traditional games, with a particular emphasis on chess sets. In 2003, production of the poly resin chess sets was relocated to China, while design and development remained in the UK. In May 2014, the Ancestors® Group acquired the rights to produce and distribute the SAC range under their own brand, Timeline®. This acquisition opened up new avenues of distribution and introduced new products to the SAC range. Today, all chess set pieces are proudly manufactured in the UK, ensuring a superior quality product. SAC chess pieces have gained a strong following in the collectible market. The fact that these pieces are entirely handmade makes large-scale production impractical, increasing the value of earlier and discontinued sets at auctions. Enthusiasts from around the world eagerly collect these highly prized sets. To complete your chess set, SAC offers a range of handcrafted chess boards made by highly skilled craftsmen in Europe. These boards are specifically designed to perfectly accommodate and protect SAC chess pieces, with a variety of styles and finishes available. Additionally, a selection of high-quality wooden games is also offered. Experience the beauty and collectability of SAC's Roman Empire Chess Set, which pays homage to the enduring legacy of this ancient civilisation and showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of Studio Anne Carlton. Whether you are a chess enthusiast, a history buff, or a collector seeking unique and exquisite pieces, this set is sure to captivate your imagination and bring a touch of Roman history to your game.
