Why Would Anyone Choose To Buy A Decorative Chess Set Like The Battle Of Waterloo

For professional chess players, one question often asked is why would someone be interested in decorative chess sets instead of a high quality set. The answer is rather simple: most people are not professional players and only play chess as a leisure game.

Some examples of why people would prefer to purchase a decorative set includes people that would like to display the chess set in their home as a decor item and also a family that purchases a set to play during “Family Game Night”.

For the person that is looking to display the chess set as a decor item may select a version of the set that is unique and more decorative than the regular, generic set. They may wish to have a chess set with crystal pieces or even a set that is modeled after the Battle of Waterloo.

Then there is the typical family that is looking for a chess set to be used during one of their game nights. To them, they may want something special that could be passed down through the generations or they may want something that will help capture the attention of the younger members of the family.

Whatever the reason may be, having a decorative chess set is not a bad thing. No matter what type of chess set a person selects, it's the joy of the game that matters.
