<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ParisLS, post: 10775006, member: 91943&quot;]Hello to all forum members. </p><p><br /></p><p>Are there any who collect antique chess sets? </p><p><br /></p><p>The thing is that I got a figurine, it had been kept in the family for over 80 years. There was just a note &quot;figurine from the set of Paul I&quot;. Then a person who plays chess saw the figurine and immediately said that it was a chess piece. After that, I specifically contacted a famous chess collector and he told me that this was a very rare 18th century &quot;Vizier&quot; figurine from the famous Kholmogory chess set. It turns out that the note meant that this figurine was from a chess set that belonged to Emperor Paul I. Then I started looking for information whether the chess sets were made for Paul I and it really says that several sets were made for the future Emperor Paul I. </p><p>But I did not find any photos of the chess sets themselves. </p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe someone has information about this chess set? </p><p><br /></p><p>I would be grateful for any information.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
