Bishops sport simple mitres, the king stands tall and elegant with a cross, and the queen is distinguished by her distinctive coronet. The knights, a true showstopper, are inspired by the horses in the Elgin Marbles from the Athenian Parthenon, adding an extra layer of historical intrigue to your game.
