Experience true elegance with the Ebony Chess Set from Helena Art, where solid Ebony wood takes centre stage in both the chessboard and the stunning chess pieces. Enriched with Mother of Pearl inlays, these designs are meticulously crafted by Turkish artists, reflecting Moorish influences and geometric motifs. This masterpiece involves intricate woodwork cuts, scores, and shapes, each painstakingly handset. The set radiates with vibrant, captivating colours, and each piece is flawlessly and intricately fitted with the precision of highly skilled craftsmen.

Delve into the world of professional Staunton chess pieces, also known as the Paul Morphy Series of 1884. These chess pieces are meticulously carved from blocks of wood, a tribute to the renowned American chess player Paul Charles Morphy, who sadly passed away in 1884. Morphy’s legacy shines brightly, considering his remarkable yet brief chess career. He achieved iconic status by consistently triumphing over renowned chess players, including the Hungarian chess great Johann Lowenthal, at a remarkably young age. These chess pieces stand as a tribute to the late, great Paul Morphy, meticulously crafted in Amritsar, India, using the finest quality woods and polished to a smooth yet natural finish. To ensure protection for your chessboard, each piece is padded with a thick green felt.Completing this exceptional set is a beautifully veneered chess piece storage box, meticulously crafted from luxurious walnut wood. Offering ample space, the storage box accommodates pieces ranging from 3 inches to as large as 4 inches.

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.
