New products and pricing
We have added several new exciting designs to our range of tall vases and are working on several new chess set desings (we expect a release in late summer.
Unfortunatelly our USD prices had to increase again due to very unfavorable development of the exchange rate. We are really sorry about this inconvenience.
2006-06-01 2006-01-30 Our chess.2es.cz site will be discontinued. To view our standard chess sets, please use this on-line catalogue. For our on-line store and special crystal and porcelain chess set, please visit our crystalchess.com homepage.
Pricing:New pricelist is valid from February 2006. Pricing of most items remained unchanged, on some items we had to increase the prices slightly due to huge increase in gas and electricity prices. 2005-01-29 Pricing:Due to the drop of dollar value we were forced to adjust our US dollar pricing accordingly. On average there was a 10% increase, although our base prices in Czech Crowns remained the same. We are sorry for this situation, if the dollar will strengthen again we will gladly recalculate our pricing. 2004-07-01 2004-01-27 2003-07-07

pages of matfond drinking glasses in order to make it easier to see the
complete range of products and designs. 2001-04-16 2001-02-28 2001-01-24 We added several new art
glass vases, one of them is three feet tall which will surely make it a great
eyecatcher in any gallery. Please click the items on the left. Some product lines have
been discontinued. However, we will soon add new and unique products to make up
for this reduction. Furthermore we have been
forced to increase mailing charges for our overseas customers. The Czech Post
office has raised its tarriffs. Nevertheless, it still stands as the most
cost-efficient way for shipping small shipmnets. We believe that the overall
price reduction should maintain equilibrium in the price level. 2000-10-25 Two new high quality chess
sets make our great chess selection even greater, totaling eighteen luxury
sets. All sets can be viewed directly on our
chess pages. Christmas buying rush is
here! 2000-10-15 A completely new category
of gel candles enriches our product range. The candles come in various
original fillings and several scents. In order to facilitate the
access to our pages, we created new domain names:
Special chess offer 2000-07-01 Due to improved production
capacities we were able to lower the prices of gold and crystal figures and
several chess sets by 10 to 15%. We believe that this will make these
first class products even more affordable. 2000-05-28 The product family of Delicate
Glass consists of many small beautiful figures, very colorful and
detailed. They make great gifts as their smooth shapes and vivid colors make
everyone smile. 2004-01-27 2000-07-01
Although we usually try not to change our pricing during the calendar year, we have to make an exception. Our supplier of glass rods for production of delicate art glass increased his prices very sharply und unexpectedly. As our margin is generally very low and our currency is getting stronger avery week we are unfortunatelly forced to transfer this increase on our valued customers. We do hope that the high quality and beautiful design of our items will be sufficient counterweight to this increase.
We have added two new categories containing glasses with hand cut, gilded and enameled designs. You can view them by clicking on the links on the left.

assortment:

standard of high quality.

these products in the left frame...
We also adjusted prices on several products mainly on our cut and painted
assortment of drinking glasses and vases. On the other hand, due to inreased
volume we are able to lower the prices on our Party glasses.

1. NEW PRICING
I am happy to inform you that the prices on most products will remain the same
as last year. However we had to increase the price on some of our vases because
of higher input costs.
Within the first half of this year you can expect new products in the following
areas: - new cut and painted vases and bowls - new perfume bottles - bohemian
crystal and colored chandeliers
We have added several new wonderfull designs in the contemporary glass
category, matfond vases and cut crystal vases. You can view these new items by
selecting the links on the left.
We created a new subcategory of Contemporary painted glass. You will find some
very vivid vases that will please your eye. Soon to come are modern drinking
sets. Further we added larger sizes of the popular cylinder matfond and cut
vases (for which we updated the pictures to a better quality). Last but not
least our experienced painter made several new designs of the historic
replicas.
There have been several interesting additions to our assortment:
First of all, we are happy to inform you that we were able to lower the prices
on most of our products by about 3% for the factory prices and by as much as 8%
for the wholesale prices. Unfortunatelly, some of the art glass animals and a
few other products had to be increased due to major energy price increases in
our country.

bottles. All of those pieces are unique in its design and craftsmanship.

We would like to ask our valued customers to place
their Christmas orders as soon as possible. As every year, the number of orders

There are several new vases and bowl in the matfond category, that complement
the current offering of glasses. Also there are some new delicate glass

pages with close-up pictures of all figures.

Please contact us for
further details.
Two more chess sets were added to our
collection: The Staunton hand-made set and Crystal Staunton set. Both represent
a new category and style that differes from our current offering. There are
also new figures and flowers in the delicate glass category.
We expanded our chess set offering by seven
new sets. Also for some sets special pages were created displaying them in more
detail. These pages are accessible directly from the on-line catalogue.
New Pricing
We made several changes in our pricing structure. First of all, our homepage
makes it possible to view the product prices in EUR or CZK in addition to the
standard US dollars. If you would like to switch the display, just send me a
quick e-mail.
The bad news is, that although most of the prices remain the same as last year
(expressed in our local currency) we were forced to raise our USD prices. This
was caused by the large slide in US dollar value during the last several
months. As soon as the situation reverses, which I think will take at least a
year, we will adjust the prices again. Our business conditions remain
unchanged.
In order to help our retail customers we
decided on lowering the minimum order requirement. The new minimum for retail
customers is USD 200. Also the minimum for factory prices was lowered to USD
1000 with a minimum of 20 pieces of each item. To download the new business
conditions, please use the More information page.
