Staunton skakbrikker
Staunton skakbrikker er skakbrikker i en særlig udformning, der bruges til spillet skak.[1] Ifølge skakreglerne er det denne type brikker, der skal bruges til konkurrencer. Journalisten Nathaniel Cook bliver krediteret for designet, og de er navngivet efter den engelske skakmester Howard Staunton. De første 500 sæt blev signeret og nummeret af Staunton.[2] De blev solgt via Jaques of London første gang i 1849, og de blev hurtigt en standard inden for spillet, og er siden blevet brugt overalt i verden.[3]
