The game of chess is fought between the English and the French with Arthur Wellesley (Duke of wellington 1769 – 1852) and of course Napoleon Bonaparte (1769 - 1821) opposing each other. The set is another very high quality example from Studio Anne Carlton and is presented in the quality you would expect from this established English brand.
