With a towering king measuring 7.6 inches high, it doesn't get much more impressive than this.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe fables of Reynard the Fox are among the longest-established literary traditions in Western history, with even Geoffrey Chaucer basing some of his writing on them. Reynard the Fox ties the various tales together, which feature beasts satirically taking the places of different human character types.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese humorous tales have proven so popular that the word 'Renard' has replaced the word for fox in French. Although he is cowardly and self-seeking, Reynard is a sympathetic hero and a strikingly accurate mirror of the human condition. The master craftsmen at Berkeley Chess in Somerset, UK, have taken these beloved and charming characters and adapted them into this wonderful chess set, finished with a rich cream and russet brown coloring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berkeley Chess","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53528645402966,"sku":"BC2015","price":472.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0828\/5166\/0118\/files\/BC2015.jpg?v=1778247814","url":"https:\/\/regencychess.com\/products\/berkeley-chess-reynard-the-fox-russet-chessmen","provider":"The Regency Chess Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
