The Staunton, as it became known, became available to the general public on 29 September 1849. The Staunton style was soon the standard on which most tournament playing pieces have been made and used around the world ever since. The low cost of the Staunton set allowed the masses to purchase sets and helped to popularize the game of chess. </p><p>Staunton chess set always had a cross on top of the king and the bishop's mitre design. These two aspects make it a Christianized chess set. Therefore, in non-Christian or socialist countries such as Yugoslavia and Soviet Union, other designs were preferred or Staunton design was altered to be without religious symbols.
