London Chess Set With London City Map Board
The London chess set with a distinguished line up of London’s most-notable architecture including Big Ben, London Eye, St Mary Axe, The Shard and Canary Wharf. An ode to the modern masterpieces within the city. Terraced houses play the perfect pawns, Big Ben makes for a regal rook, the London Eye is cast as the knight, 30 St Mary Axe steps into the role of the bishop perfectly, whilst the Shard lends its elegance and might to the role of the queen. When it comes to the Big Smoke, the stature and significance of Canary Wharf is the only building that can take on the role for king, and this piece stands at four and a half inches tall.
Beautiful and unique London chess set for both the chess player and design enthusiast alike.
A unique architectural aesthetic.
32-piece chess set cast in injection moulded acrylic.
The monochrome acrylic plays a perfect nod to the concrete tones with the world of architecture, whilst allowing the form and detail of each building to be truly appreciated.
Double weighted pieces with soft felt base.
Each London chess set comes complete with a hand screen-printed wooden map playing board and presentation box.
Handcrafted in England.

Customer Reviews
Authenticity and Quality
The British Emporium is an atmospheric place for those who value authenticity and quality. It is worth stopping by, even just to escape the tourist bustle and experience the subtle aura of traditional British shopping.
Lovely Shopping experience!
Bakewell is gorgeous and this shop had the most amazing picture which I had to buy to capture my time here! Lucy who served us was an absolute charming young lady who made the experience even better! Great shop, wonderful staff and a beautiful location! Wholeheartedly recommend!
Unique Gifts
I love this store! I always find really unique gifts here and everything is beautifully displayed. Staff are friendly and attentive. I fell in love with this stunning floral wrapping paper to use for my Christmas gifts this year.
Delightful to deal with
I was sent the wrong hat but the mix up was put right by Jo in a few days. She kept in touch with me personally and was delightful to deal with. My replacement rain hat is well made and flattering and I am about to order another in maroon.
Chosen with care
Such a lovely little shop. It’s cosy, welcoming, and full of beautiful mugs, plates, and unique pottery pieces. You can tell everything’s been chosen with care. It just has such a warm, happy feel to it. I’ll definitely be popping back in.
Extremely Friendly
Could not reccomend more for online purchases, quick and easy...
I’ll be back!
I chanced upon The British Emporium whilst spending the weekend in Bakewell, Derbyshire. The staff in store were super friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable about their stock. I purchased a waxed cotton waterproof hat. Good looks and a great price.
Fantastic shop
We called in when we were staying in Over Haddon, and the lady in the shop was very friendly and chatty. We bought a few items in shop, but really liked the unusual coat hooks, as it suited us both very well. As soon as we got home, we ordered it online, and 3 days later, it was delivered, safe and sound.
Wonderful, friendly people
Always make a point of visiting this shop when we’re in the area. The items for sale are lovely but the real value is the quality of the people who work there. Such wonderful, friendly people who make the experience so much better.
Delightful dog-friendly shop
I had a lovely chat to the person serving me and my fiancée was delighted with her sheep felting craft kit.
Really outstanding customer service
I gave them a call and lovely Sue went out of her way to ensure the item I needed got to me ASAP. It arrived with perfect timing, beautifully wrapped, ready to give as a gift. Thankyou so much British Emporium.
Great customer service
Jo resolved an issue with my order as soon as it arose. Great customer service and extremely quick at responding!
