As you can see the item is incomplete and in a bit of a strange state. I have no clue how old the chess pieces are or where they came from, but they seem to be made of lead and are quite unique. The board was certainly not meant to look like a chess board, someone has stuck pieces of laminated flooring in cubes of different shades to make a chess board (some as you can see are missing). Questions message me.
