Beautifully hand painted. Especially like the fact that both sides of the set are unique and individual pieces within each side of the set are unique. I carefully researched before making my purchase and I am definite that I made the right choice.

I adore the kings astride their mounts - horse & camel; all knights are astride rearing horses - the crusader horses are draped; bishops are substituted by warriors. All these warriors and knights are individualized and are non-identical - whether Knights Templar or Saracen. The crusaders have crosses on their tunics or shields.
