Exclusive Staunton Chess Set with Sheesham & Boxwood Men and Ebony & Birdseye Maple Board

• 4" King Height, 1.8" King Base, 2.2” Square Size, and 21” 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
• Traditional Staunton style of the pieces is a classic chess set design
• Fine detail of the knight, king, and queen gives this set a rich appearance
• Triple weighted pieces contain lead weight roughly 3 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 extremely hefty feel they need for easy handling
• Pieces have a broader base than normal for extra stability
• Bottoms are covered with pads so the pieces slide easily across the board without tipping over
• Ebony and birdseye maple framed board beautifully complements the light and dark wood pieces
• Rounded corners and edges of the chess board give it a sleek and attractive presence
• Beautiful inlaid stripe surrounds the squares, uniquely separating the frame from the playing area
• Striped grain of the ebony and the swirling pattern of the birdseye maple add character to the chess board and provide an exceptional backdrop for the pieces
