        Some collectors put their chess set collections on the web. Here are several examples, not an exhaustive list by any means.

        Collectors (not dealers)
        http://www.chessantique.com (my own collection)
        http://home.versatel.nl/gjslotboom/index.htm
        http://www.chessmuseum.com/
        http://www.tykroll.com/chess/

        Dealers (trustworthy, based on my experience, but this post is neither an advertisement nor an endorsement. Their websites show beautiful chess sets, hence the listing here)

        The Fabergé Egg is not only in Texas. I have it too in my Collection “World of Chess”. On http://www.schachmuseum.ch you find the pictures from my last expositions with this beautiful Fabergé Egg…
