Established
in Hull, Yorkshire in 1969 as Studio Anne Carlton, the SAC brand
now lists over 100 chess sets in the current range. Many of them
are recent introductions but they all bear the hallmarks of skill
and tradition so typical of the world famous sculptors and
artists used by SAC.
Each
SAC chess set utilises the timeless skills and craftsmanship
originating from the company's foundation. All pieces are hand
produced and finished in either a traditional brown and cream
appearance or hand decorated with painstaking detail.
The
sculptures often take many months to complete and every care is
taken to ensure historical accuracy where appropriate. From the
artists masterpiece the figures pass through various casting
processes until suitable production moulds can be made without
losing any of the original detail.
