Description

Reynard the fox is a recurring character in a series of allegorical fables that date back to the Middle Ages. The stories were written by a number of authors – in numerous languages – and were often only loosely related to other Reynard works. Typically, Reynard was depicted as an anthropomorphic red fox and trickster figure who would deceive other anthropomorphic animals for his own advantage.



The skilled craftsman at Berkeley have bought these fables to life with this wonderfully detailed set of chess pieces. Made from ground stone resin, all the key characters from the stories are well represented.



All the pieces are nicely weighted and have felted bottoms.



Please note that a chessboard is not included.
