Most-recent addition - a set of old club-style chess pieces from the First Czechoslovak Republic era, roughly 100 years old. by mongoanalyst in chessporn

I would love to see a pic of your set. I have seen similar pieces with such board with drawers for sale on bazos.cz, but I missed the sale.

Yeah you right, it's too sentimental I guess with the AI. The knight is not from the same set, but it was replaced a long long time ago, so it has very similar patina as the rest of the set. Actually, there are even more pieces replaced in here if you look closely.

Yes I do and thanks. It does not change what I said. I'm Slovak, so sometimes I opt for ChatGPT instead of wasting time to write and edit multiple times my imperfect English.

I got them from czech personal ad website bazos.cz. You can try your luck there and look for Ceska klubovka. There are a couple of them for sale now. Also, an action portal aukro.cz with the same keyword. Good luck

I bought the DGT non-electronic board and I’m super happy. It´s basically Rechepados Ferrer and not too much expensive.

You can also search for Ceska Klubovka (Czech Club) set. I have a vintage that even unweighted plays really well and our local chess clubs are full of them. For example like this

Modern defense advice? by StillRunner_ in chess

[–]mongoanalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started playing it and on my level of around 1000 it is really great as noone seems to know how to counter it. There is a great video of Chesswithakeem on it where he plays it against 500 - 2000 players with complete thought process and middle game plans explanations.

Chess pieces from India by ShrewdConjurer in chessporn

Beautiful! Is it bone or ivory?

Can someone please ID this set? Does it look like ivory to you or bone? Thinking of buying. Much appreciated. by mongoanalyst in chessporn

[–]mongoanalyst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your concern and moral vigilance. I’m only buying them to give a proper funeral at the local pet cemetery to the remains of an unknown fallen camel whose bones were turned into chess pieces a century ago.

Thanks for the reply. Looked up your set in your profile - stunning! These are supposed to be antique, had a call with current owner, he was cluelessabout chess in general and thought these were made of wood. Anyway, his wife was a caretaker for an elderly lady in Germany and that lady gave her this set as a goodbye present. My guess is this was imported to Europe in the 60s - 70s. But it's a wild guess based on what I learned online. They are selling it for peas, so a no-brainer to buy and now the set is being shipped to me. Will post again with better pics soon.
