Excellent as always.

Beautiful!
The only thing that distracts a bit is base of the knights - maybe they could have some rounded corners on its base? - its almost like they are intersecting the board. -
Thanks for the comments, yes well spotted the bases are irregular they do intersect. I should have lifted them a few mm to get some edges. Here is a screenshot of the model :

This is brilliant, I concur with the other comments. I will add a link to a trilogy of books by Pete May, there is a connection. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chessmen-Lewis-Trilogy-Peter-May/dp/085738225X
The books are quite excellent too.
