The House of Staunton is proud to offer the Herman Steiner Commemorative Series Chess Pieces. It features a 5.0" King with a 2.0" diameter base. The Chess pieces are hand carved by our master artisans and crafted out of the finest woods. The Chess pieces are heavily weighted with English Leather basepads stamped with Frank Camaratta Signature under the King, luxurious billiard cloth base pads under the other pieces and a beautiful finish.
As with all of our Chess sets, the Herman Steiner Commemorative Series exemplifies a perfect combination of distinct beauty and functionality.

This treatise chronicles the life of Herman Steiner, his early days, his life as a professional chessplayer, his Hollywood connections, his Chess Club and the Hollywood Chess Scene and his entrepreneurial adventures. The book also provides insights into the design of the Herman Steiner chessmen, the tournaments in which they were used, along with his other chessic innovations - his chess clock and chess table. This work is infused with copious high quality photographs of the Steiner chessmen in play with many of the famous chess and Hollywood personalities from the glory days of Alekhine and Capablanca. The book concludes with an annotated selection of Steiner’s games against the World’s best.
