Emmanuel Chess sets

German Uhlig

Set by Uhlig from ca. 1900 - the heyday of this principal Borstendorf in the Erzgebirge manufactury. White almost ivory-like bone.  This is an early version confirmed by the shape of the knight and quality that changed in 1938.   This is also a big one with a 8.5 cm king.  Other sets usually have only 7 or 8 cm kings.  These chess sets are fragile. This one is in perfect condition which is rare.
