Staunton are the most recognizable chess pieces we know and love. These classic chess pieces are named after Howard Staunton, who was considered one of the best players in the world. The horse is the most complex and distinctive piece in any chess set. The realistically carved horse head of the Staunton was likely inspired by the sculptures on the east side of the Parthenon. The Staunton metal pieces by Manopoulos are meticulously crafted and weave history and architecture into original pieces with a timeless design.
