Description

Palisander Chess Set 20 Inch with Weighted Sheesham Staunton Reykjavik Chess Pieces 3.75 Inch

Renowned for its historical significance and superior craftsmanship, the Palisander Chess Set offers a 20-inch wooden board adorned with meticulously inlaid squares, with darker palisander squares harmonizing elegantly with lighter maple squares. This exquisite board hails from Spain, promising enduring quality for countless matches. Paired with the board are Weighted Sheesham Staunton Reykjavik Chess Pieces, also known as the Bobby Fischer, Jacob Knight, or Jacques Staunton Series, reflecting the diverse nomenclature associated with this iconic set. These pieces pay homage to the legendary 1972 Reykjavik tournament, where chess luminaries Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky engaged in a historic battle, immortalized as one of the greatest chess events. Handcrafted by skilled artisans in Amritsar, India, each piece is meticulously carved from solid wood blocks and heavily weighted for stability during gameplay. Adorned with soft green felt to protect the board, these pieces epitomize elegance and precision. Complementing this exceptional set is a luxurious mahogany wood veneered chess piece storage box, offering ample space for pieces ranging from 3 to 4 inches. Lined with padded black velvet felt, the storage box ensures the utmost protection for your cherished chess pieces, completing the ensemble with sophistication and practicality.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

We are a family business that focus strictly around customer service and ensuring our customers have a fantastic all round experience. We are also the largest store selling both Chess and Backgammon sets of great variations.

A common question that confuses many, infact there is no official provider of staunton chess pieces. These chess pieces are named after a gentleman, Howard Staunton who put forward a design of chess pieces made with precision and weight to prevent them toppling over. Staunton chess pieces are all manufactured by skilled craftsmen in Amritsar, India.

This is the official Chessgammon store, we are also present on eBay, Amazon and ETSY. However purchasing from the incorrect listing will mean you may be purchasing from a 3rd party dropshipper. This makes it incredibly difficult for you to arrange replacements/ complain about any potential damages. 

We ensure a safe and secure payment checkout pathways, using government approved payment systems and ofcourse Paypal checkout available for safe measure.
