There were several objects that played an important role in the stories and legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the
Round Table. The most obvious was the Round Table which was given to Arthur as Guinevere's dowry when they were
married. The Table became the place where the Knights gathered and symbolized equality, unity, and oneness.
There was also Excalibur, the beautiful, magical sword that was given to Arthur by the Lady of the Lake. Excalibur was
extremely powerful and at the Last Battle of Camlann, Arthur had Bedivere throw Excalibur back into the lake from
whence it came. Finally, there was the Holy Grail. Much of Arthurian Tradition hinges on the Quest for the Grail.
As you can see, there are several items which are inseparably associated with King Arthur and his Knights of the
Round Table. While it probably would be a bit impractical to own a 1-1/4 ton, 18' diameter Round Table, or to set out on
a search for the Holy Grail, you can make a connection to the medieval past by owning a King Arthur theme chess set.
