The legacy of Paul Morphy, who triumphed over esteemed opponents like Hungarian chess great Johann Lowenthal, is meticulously preserved in these hand-carved chessmen from Amritsar, India – a place renowned for its skilled artisans. Each piece is thoughtfully padded with plush green felt, ensuring both the integrity of the pieces and the pristine state of the chess board.

To house and protect these treasures, a luxuriously veneered chess piece storage box made from Mahogany wood awaits.

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.
