Old Russian Chess Set with Sheesham & Boxwood Men and Walnut & Maple Framed Board

Chess Set Features

3.75" King Height, 1.5" King Base, 2” Square Size, and 17.3” square x 0.5” deep Board Size
Pieces are hand carved from sheesham wood and boxwood for lasting quality
Sheesham wood ranges in color from dark to light brown; it is easier to carve than other woods and is more readily available making it a popular choice for relatively inexpensive chess sets
Boxwood ranges in color from a yellowish white to a yellowish brown, has almost no visible wood grain, and is often used to make the white pieces in wood chess sets
Light boxwood and darker sheesham wood pieces give this set a beautiful contrast for display or for easy identification during play
Fine detail of the knight, king, and queen gives this set a rich appearance
Sheesham wood bishop has a boxwood top and boxwood bishop has a sheesham wood top giving the chess pieces a unique look
Double weighted pieces contain lead weight roughly 2 times as heavy as the raw piece; this increases the quality and value of a chess set by giving the pieces the stability and the hefty feel they need for easy handling
Bottoms are covered with pads so the pieces slide easily across the board without tipping over
Walnut and maple framed board beautifully complements the light and dark wood pieces
Striped grain of the walnut wood gives the board character and provides a nice backdrop for the pieces
Packaged in WorldWise Import’s European style presentation box with individual slots to hold and protect the pieces
