French Regency Tournament Chess set K82 ca. 1920 France

Nice wooden chess set made in France in French Regency style. Pieces are of course all there, minimal imperfections with clear signs of use and age. The king size is 8,2 cm or 3 1/4 inches high, base measures ca. 2,7 cm or 1″ in diameter. No markings on the box that has not yet a central divider, which puts it around 1920. This is a hand turned set with some small differences between pieces because of this. I tried to show this in the pictures. It give the set a great vintage vibe and makes it a good conversation set.
