The Greek Mythology

Sharing deep cultural value and timeless design, Manopoulos Chess sets are created through the skills of gifted sculptors, designers, and craftsmen. Each chess set showcases aspects of Greek civilization and European history, from playing pieces which draw on notable historical and mythical figures and famous works of art, to themes taken straight from the history and mythology of Greece, Manopoulos Chess sets are sure to inspire.

The Greek Mythology Chess set takes inspiration from the story of how the city of Athens got its name. This glorious city was in dispute between two gods: Poseidon, the God of the Sea, and Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom. After both gods made an offer to the citizens of the city, Athena’s gift was preferred, and thus, the city was named for her and carries her name to this day.

The Chessmen
Greek sculptors loved to recreate this divine conflict through their art. The King is a replica of the famous statue “Poseidon of Melos” (2nd cent. B.C.), and the Queen represents the glorious “Athena Promachos” (450 B.C., Acropolis Museum). A bronze Hellenistic statue has inspired the Bishop, and the Knight is a part of the marble facade of Parthenon sculpted by Pheidias. The castle is a reproduction of one of the most admirable Attic steles devoted to young Aristion who died in battle. Finally, the Pawn is a bronze statue of a fully armed warrior in 500 B.C.

A little disappointed
Size: One Size, Color: Tuscany
A little disappointed. Bag is a good size but the color is not the same as another Lucky Brand bag that I was trying to replace. It’s darker and not a true tan leather. The crossbody clip on is not leather.

Who doesnt love the smell of a new leather purse? And from Lucky Brand at Amazon prices? Sign me up! I plan to use this as a crossbody as the strap is the perfect length. So cute, great size and smells fantastic.

Nice bag, lots of pockets
I love the different sized pockets and the big ones in the middle. I also like that they are all zippered. I like the end pockets. Just the right size bag and the print is just as pretty as its picture!

Cloudmusic tote
Color: Blue Flowers in Black
I LOVE this bag! I bought it for use as a purse. I carry ALOT of stuff in my purse & after my Vera Bradley purse bit the dust, I couldn't find another one to replace it. This new purse is perfect! Nylon straps that aren't going to fray like the VB purse straps did,,, plenty of room for all my stuff,, infact more room than my old purse had. Made of nylon so it can be washed & the print is absolutely beautiful. I've already gotten many compliments on how pretty it is. It also came sooner than I was expecting it!
