Jaques Reykjavik Staunton 3.8" c1990?

I believe this was my first "Jaques" chess set. Whilst it was sold by Jaques, it does not match the quality of the Jaques sets used in the famous Reykjavik showdown between Fischer and Spassky, the knights in particular having poor placement and carving of the eyes. Still, the turned pieces are very tactile and nicely weighted. Kings are stamped "Jaques London".
