German Bohemia "Spezial" Chess Set, ca. 1970

German Bohemia "Spezial" Chess Set, ca. 1970

Another fine example of an original Bohemia "Spezial" Staunton set with a Knight variation close to the "Dragon Knights" or "Dog Knights". King size is 8.5 cm (or 3.3"). The pieces are lightly weighted and made from boxwood and palisander wood. Together with a folding board with a fitting box interior. Last picture is a comparison between this set's Knight and the original "Dragon Knight", which is from a slightly bigger set (King size 9.8 cm or 3.85").
