The Carton-Pierre Casket Reproduction is a masterfully crafted, accurate reproduction produced in the USA using the same materials as the original. These caskets are custom produced for each order, and please allow 3-6 weeks for shipping.
This historic design dates to the mid-19th Century and was originally created in 1849 for Leuchars by Joseph L. Williams using carton-pierre material designed and manufactured by George Jackson & Sons. The neo-Gothic sarcophagi were made to house the revolutionary Staunton Chessmen, registered by Nathaniel Cooke and introduced by Jaques of London in September of 1849.
