Named after the St.George chess club in London. Note that Keats uses the name "St.George" for "Régence" sets. I do not do that. Others call these sets "Old English". Again, I do not do that.
Actually, this Tagua nut set has slight St.George influence only.
German sets of this type are often mistakenly seen as English.
