This beautiful chess set captures the period in history known as The Battle of Troy or Trojan War.
The Trojan War was a fierce battle in which the Greeks besieged Troy for nine years. They finally won when, pretending to depart, they left a wooden horse, which the Trojans took into the city. Warriors hidden in the horse opened the city gates to the Greek army, which sacked Troy. According to the ancient Greek poet, Homer, the Trojan War began when Helen, the beautiful wife of Meneleus, king of Sparta, was carried off by Paris, the son of Priam, king of Troy. Helen (Helen of Troy) was the daughter of Leda and Zeus and was reputed to be the most beautiful woman mortal in the world. Brad Pitt recently starred as Achilles, the mightiest of the Greeks, in an epic Hollywood movie titled "Troy", based entirely on this ancient story. This is a NEW IN THE BOX SET. Features finely crafted HAND PAINTED coldcast resin figures. The tallest pieces measure 3 1/2" tall. The set comes with a very nice 15" X 15" walnut board with pedistal feet. NOTE: These chess pieces are available without a board in our Ebay store. The winning bid can substitute the walnut board for a WALNUT BOARD WITH BUILT IN STORAGE BOX for $49. extra and there is no additional charge for the heavier board! (see picture 6). See our Ebay store for more detail or to order this board.
Winning bid to pay $19. shipping in mainland US. Outside mainland extra. Texas residents add 8.25% sales tax.
Pay by PayPal for faster shipping or by money order or check. Check will clear before shipping.
