Macassar Chess Set 20 Inch with Weighted Ebonised Staunton Reykjavik Chess Pieces 3.75 Inch

The Macassar Chess Set, boasting a 20-inch wooden chess board with inlaid squares, offers a captivating arena for strategic battles. With its darker Macassar squares contrasting elegantly against the lighter Maple ones, this set exudes sophistication and style. The highlight of this ensemble is the Weighted Ebonised Staunton Reykjavik Chess Pieces, also known as the Bobby Fischer, Jacob Knight, or Jacques Staunton Series, reflecting its diverse appellations across different chess stores. The name “Reykjavik series” pays homage to the historic 1972 chess tournament in Iceland, where Bobby Fischer triumphed over Boris Spassky in a legendary final, etching its place in chess lore. Originally introduced by Jacques of London, these Staunton chess pieces are now meticulously reproduced by skilled artisans in Amritsar, India. Crafted from solid wood blocks, each piece is intricately carved and weighted for stability during gameplay. To protect both the board and pieces, the chessmen are adorned with soft green felt. Accompanied by a walnut wood veneered chess piece storage box, padded and lined with black velvet felt, this set epitomizes quality and durability, promising years of enjoyment for chess enthusiasts.

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.
