One of the greatest myths of medieval literature certainly is the epic tale of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table and their quest for the Holy Grail. In the writings of Chretien de Troyes the quest for the Grail becomes a symbol for the medieval ideals of knighthood, gallantry, and chivalry. The Holy Grail is a cup in which Joseph of Arimathia gathered the blood of Jesus Christ during his crucifixion.

After uniting the Kingdom King Arthur sends out his best and most valiant knights, Lancelot, Gavian, and Parcifal among them, to quest for the Holy Grail. To share their adventures with their brethern the knights come together in the castle of Camelot around a large round table where are are equal in honor. No one shall feel superior to the other knights and all of them share a place of equal prestige. Thus is formed the Brotherhood of the Knights of the Round Table.

Many of them will die on King Arthur's side in his last battle against the evil Mordred. Only Galahad, the son of Lancelot and the most noble and purest of all knights will finally find and be allowed to touch the Holy Grail.

This replica of King Arthur & his Knights of the Round Table is magnificent in detail and clarity and is sure to be the centerpiece of hours of conversation. The table is a pedestal table that is elevated higher than the stone floor on which it sits. There is an indentation on the stone floor to secure the round table. The floor is 18" in diameter and the table is 10" in diameter. The Knights of the Round Table pewter sculptures are 4"+ and are accompanied with chairs, which sit 1 1/4" tall and 1" wide. Also, the knights have a pewter base and do not come with a wood platform. King Arthur has a prestigious throne to denote his station. The entire set makes for a breathtaking scene of King Arthur and his noble knights.
