Walnut Chess Set 20 Inch With Helena Mother of Pearl Flat Chess Board and Weighted Sheesham Zagreb Staunton Chess Pieces 3.75 Inch

Discover the captivating allure of the Mother of Pearl Walnut Chess Set, a fusion of Turkish artistry and Moorish influences in mesmerizing geometric designs. The chess board is a masterpiece adorned with wood inlays, bearing testament to the meticulous craftsmanship behind each tiny woodcut, score, and shape. This Walnut chess set is more than a mere game; it’s a perfect memento, a thoughtful gift, or a stunning addition to any chess board collection.

Each chess piece is a testament to precision and artistry, intricately and flawlessly fitted by master craftsmen. The Walnut chess set showcases the renowned Zagreb Chess Pieces, commonly referred to as the Zagreb 1959 Series, commemorating the world championship tournament held in Zagreb, Croatia, in 1959. This design stands out notably from other Staunton chess pieces, especially the distinctive top portions of the king, queen, and bishop, all bearing the opposition’s color. The knight, a prominent feature, is masterfully carved, its strokes tracing across its vertebrae, seemingly bowing in homage. This piece also exhibits design elements reminiscent of Russian chess pieces, adding an intriguing touch. Skilled artisans from Amritsar, India, meticulously handcraft each piece, carving them from specified wood blocks to bring to life the unique details and designs of each chess piece.

Included with this remarkable Walnut chess set is a splendidly veneered chess piece storage box, thoughtfully crafted from Walnut wood. This generously sized box accommodates chessmen ranging from 3 to 4 inches, providing ample space for your cherished pieces. The interior of the storage box is expertly lined with plush black velvet felt, ensuring your chess pieces remain unscathed and protected. Immerse yourself in the world of exquisite craftsmanship, strategy, and elegance with the Mother of Pearl Walnut Chess Set – an embodiment of artistry and excellence.

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.
