Herend King Chess Piece Black Fishnet

While one of the weakest pieces on the chess board, the king is the most important piece - the entire game of chess is centered around him. Even the term checkmate comes from the Persian phrase Shāh Māt - "the king is defeated". Herend's new for 2013 piece captures this important piece beautifully with its trademark black fishnet and 24k gold highlights. The smooth white porcelain body and hand painted designs invoke the passion of great sculptors and master painters in every piece manufactured for over 180 years by the Herend Porcelain Manufactory of Hungary. Hand-painted white porcelain with 24k gold-painted highlights.
