The Selenus chess set is one of the most elegant classical chess set styles in use before the standardization of chess pieces that happened after the Staunton chess set was launched, in 1849 by John Jaques of London games manufacturer. These chessmen can also be called "Garden Chess Sets" because their theme frequently consisted of "formal flower gardens" - Kings and Queens were Fountains; Bishops and Pawns were flowers; Knights were gentle horses; and Rooks became civic towers instead of battlements. In England they were frequently called "Tulip Chess Sets". Available here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2831139 |
