Terracotta Army Chess Set

Originally invented around 200BC by Chinese military commander, Hán Xin, as he and his troops waited to go into battle, chess has long captivated our imagination. What could be more fun that strategizing a game with your very own Terracotta Army? With emperors and consorts as kings and queens, warriors as pawns, pagoda-style castles and majestic horse heads, each weighty piece is cast from resin in dark red and ivory and stored in a vintage-style leatherette case embossed with traditional phoenix and dragon.
