Our Contemporary Series is defined by stripping back all the detail to create bold, confident pieces that belie the ancient traditions of the game they represent.

Both sides are hand-polished to ensure a sharp finish, and are all weighted for absolute perfect balance, making them a joy to handle.

We have therefore matched these chessmen with the 45cm deluxe quality chessboard produced by reputable chess artisan Rechapados Ferrer of Spain. This board combines the highly fashionable and contemporary wenge wood veneer, which has a rich dark colour and a fascinating geometrically parallel grain, with beautiful light maple. The board is constructed to exacting dimensions and quality veneers with clean lines, giving it a lovely, pristine contemporary look.

Putting these two stunning components together results in a very modern-looking chess set. A clean, stylish and minimal design that will complement many modern furnished households. If you are looking for a modern chess set, then this contemporary design will work nicely with up-to-date interiors and a luxury modern feel.

You may wish to put your Contemporary chessmen away for safe storage whilst not in play, so take a look at our range of storage cases and should you need any assistance with choosing the right one for you, please feel free to contact us.

Most complete coverage of Guadalcanal I have read.
Format: Kindle
I have read dozens of WWII books and many touched on the Guadalcanal Battle. I thoroughly enjoyed The Big E and its involvement in the battle. Thas book covered the entire conflict from start to finish. Frankly, I hated to see the book end. The courage and tenacity of all those involved was amazing. To understand the miserable conditions in the area where these men fought was inspiring. To see this battle through the eyes of the American forces and Japanese forces was an added bonus. Thank you for a great read!!!

Shines a light on the reality of the War in the Pacific
Format: Audiobook
Well-written and it really laid out all of the details of how this battle unfolded. I listed to the audio-book, and it was helpful to have the PDF to see a map. How the soldiers on each side endured the battles in the Pacific Theater is beyond me. Man's inhumanity to man that result in this battle outlined here is depressing, but also the sacrifice of those called on to endure and suffer through that inhumanity is equally inspiring and humbling to those whose lives are so comfortable in comparison.

Good book
Format: Hardcover
If Ww2 interest u at all then u want to read this book. I have read the other books on this subject ( so why read another one?) well what i luv about this book is that because so much time has passed that most all of the people in this book are gone & so much more info has been released about these battles, that the combatants ( especially the higher officers are written about as if they are human (mistakes & warts & all) & not like they were all Bull Halsey type Gods which they were certainly not as in most all the books released within the 1st 30 yrs of the war. This makes for a much different & more interesting story about these battles than even the original books on the subject. You come to understand the where & whyfores better, by knowing the real true strenghts & weakness's & fears that drove these men. Hey they are all the bravest of heroes to me. But the were not perfect, & because of this, mistakes were made, that were really not acknowledged or maybe not even known about in early books on WW2

Great structure
Format: Paperback
I had to get the book for class, so did not exactly get it because I “wanted to.” It was a good read though. I liked the structure of each section. Everything simple enough to understand while also diving a bit deeper.

A must have for every intelligence professional - collector or analyst!
Format: Paperback
An excellent resource for any intelligence collector or analyst. The chapters are written by world-class experts in each discipline with an excellent final chapter on collection management written by Drs. Lowenthal and Clark. Each chapter defines the elements of the particular intelligence discipline, its history and producers, as well as how the INT is managed and explores likely future trends. An extensively researched and documented text that is nonetheless an approachable resource that would make an excellent addition to any intelligence related syllabus.
