Manopoulos is a Greek family manufacturer, working from a factory in Thebes and making chess since 1970, when founder Costas Manopoulos cast his first bronze figures as an art student in Athens. Their boards are marquetry, fine wood veneers inlaid by hand into pattern, sometimes set with shell, stone, metal or brass. The metal pieces are cast, plated, then varnished and finished by hand.

Pick up a Manopoulos knight and you will feel the difference straight away. These are solid, properly weighted metal pieces, not the thin hollow castings that flex in your fingers. We have not found that quality anywhere else in this category, and the themed ranges are the sets people stop and stare at.

Metal pieces are cast and plated, then varnished and finished by hand.

• Clean with a dry cloth only. Manopoulos, who make most of our metal sets, specify a dry cloth and no chemicals.
• Avoid humidity and water contact.
• Never use metal polish such as Brasso. It strips plating and lacquer, and it cannot be undone.
• Handle pieces by the body rather than fine detail like spears, wings or crowns.
• Keep the felt bases dry.
