V Rare ANTIQUE Hand Carved FRENCH REGENCY Wooden CHESS SET C1890 BOX 3 1/2 King

  
In between the disk knobs there is another small knop.. These historical Regency pieces probably date to latter part of the 19th century and are in excellent condition considering their age, although, as you can see, there is a slight "lean" amongst the royals - not an unusual occurrence with these slim boxwood pieces which I believe adds character to the set as a whole.
