ID 1360605301 The Craftsman Series Chess Set Ebony & Boxwood Pieces with Elm Burl & Erable Board & Box - 375" King

This luxurious chess set includes our Craftsman Series with genuine ebony and boxwood pieces matched with our Elm Burl and Erable Chess Board and Classic Elm Burl Chess Box. This set has become a popular model for players and collectors alike for its notable use in a number of prestigious chess tournaments in the U.S. including the 2021 Sinquefield Cup in Saint Louis. Handcrafted by our skilled artisans, this elegant Staunton chess set features a beautifully sculpted knight with fine detail and a unique mane that is far different from other knights. The other pieces have traditional Staunton shapes and an elegant profile that together creates a cohesive design from pawn to king. These are genuine ebony and boxwood pieces with a traditional polished lacquer finish. The king is 3.75" tall with a base diameter of 1.6". The pieces are heavily weighted for exceptional balance and stability on the chess board and have green billiard cloth pads for a quiet soft cushion. We include two extra queens for pawn promotion.Our Elm Burl and Erable Chess Board is made for us by Italfama in Italy, the leading chess manufacturer in Europe. Elm burl is one of the most beautiful burl woods in the world with a wide range of brown-orange colors and unique burl wood patterns. The erable is whitened bird's-eye maple and looks and creates a striking contrast with the rich colors of the elm burl. This is an inlaid chess board made from the finest quality elm burl and erable veneer and sealed with a matte polyurethane finish to protect and enhance the beauty of the wood. The precise inlay work by the craftsmen is remarkable. The chess board has 2.125" squares accentuated by a black inlay delimiter and surrounded by an extra wide frame. The overall size of the board is 21.75" and is .625" thick. The chess box is wonderfully constructed and reminiscent of the old heirloom quality chess boxes from many years ago. The box is covered in elm burl veneer and the interior is lined with a thick green baize just like we use for the pads on our chess pieces. The box has a divider in the center for storing the black and white pieces separately. We used high quality recessed hinges and a brass plated lock for securing the lid. We include 2 keys in case one ever gets lost. Whether you are a collector or just looking for one special chess set for home, the Fierce Knight chess set with this beautiful chess board is an unbeatable combination.Chess Set: Includes 34 Pieces with 2 Extra Queens for Pawn Promotion; Ebony & Boxwood; Traditional Polished Lacquer Finish; King Height: 3.75"; King Base: 1.625"; King Weight: 3.2 Ounces; Chess Set Weight: 56 Ounces; Green Billiard Cloth Pads; Includes a certificate of authenticity so you will always know the name of the set, where it came from, the year it was made, and the type of woods; Chess Board: Elm Burl & Erable (Whitened Bird's-Eye Maple) Veneer over Wood Composites; Matte Polyurethane Finish; Black Inlay Delimiter Around Squares; Square Size: 2.125"; Overall Dimensions: 21.75" x .625" Thick; Made for The Chess Store by Italfama; Chess Box: Elm Burl Veneer over Wood Composites; Matte Polyurethane Finish; Brass Plated Hardware; Emerald Green Baize Lining; Outside Dimensions: 9.75" x 6.625" x 4.25" ; Inside Dimension: 8.75" x 5.625" x 3" (1" space above in lid);
