The Official Staunton design, as required for tournament and formal play by the U.S. Chess Federation and the World Chess Federation (FIDE), and enhanced variations of this design is a further indication of the hegemonic status of this kind of chess equipment. Howard Staunton, an English master of the 1800s, produced a design of chess pieces that was adopted throughout the world in large measure because of the historical prominence of chess at the precise juncture when national chess organizations, championship tournaments and titles were introduced.
