This chess set package includes our New Exclusive Staunton Chess Set in genuine ebony and boxwood matched with our Walnut Burl and Bird's-Eye Maple Chess Board and Classic Bird's-Eye Maple Chess Box. Our New Exclusive Staunton has a Jaques-esque design with all of the features avid chess players and collectors looks for in an upper-end Staunton chess set. The pieces have an elegant profile and the knight is beautifully sculpted with fine detail. The obsidian black ebony and natural color of the boxwood chess pieces go perfect with the walnut and maple chess board. This is a large set with a tall king and a base diameter of 1.875". The pieces are triple weighted for exceptional stability on the chess board and have thick green baize pads for easily sliding from square to square and a soft feel when placing down. Our Walnut Burl and Bird's-Eye Maple Chess Board offers a luxurious back drop for these special chess pieces. Handcrafted from premium veneer, this chess board highlights the deep, rich hues of the walnut burl contrasted with the golden tones of the bird's-eye maple. The squares are surrounded with a wide black delimiter and a black border on the outside accentuates the bird's-eye maple frame. A semi-gloss polyurethane finish both protects and enhances the color of the wood. The squares are 2.125" with an overall footprint of 21.5".Our Bird's-Eye Maple Classic Chess Box is wonderfully constructed and reminiscent of the old heirloom quality chess boxes from years ago. The box is covered in beautiful bird's-eye maple veneer that perfectly matches the chess board squares and frame with a lustrous semi-gloss polyurethane finish. The interior is lined with a thick emerald-green baize just like we use for the pads on our chess pieces. The box has a divider in the center for conveniently storing the black and white pieces separately. We use high quality brass plated quadrant hinges that neatly recess into the wall of the box and a brass plated lock and key for securing the lid when closed. It's the perfect chess box for safely storing and protecting these special chess pieces.Chess Pieces: Ebony & Boxwood; Pieces individually hand polished with solid lacquer and buffing wheel; King Height: 4"; King Base: 1.875"; King Weight: 3.4 Ounces; Chess Set Weight: 80 Ounces; 2 spare queens are included for pawn promotion; Green Billiard Cloth Pads; Chess Board: The Chess Store Exclusive Design Handcrafted Chess Board; Material: Walnut Burl, Bird's-Eye Maple & Black Poplar Veneer; Finish: Semi-Gloss Polyurethane; Square Size: 2.125"; Dimensions: 21.5" x 21.5" x .5"; Cloth-line bottom; Chess Box: Material: Bird's-Eye Maple Veneer & Other Wood Material; Lining: Thick Emerald Green Baize; Finish: Semi-Gloss Polyurethane; Brass Plated Quadrant Hinges (recessed & slide into box); Brass Plated Lock & Key; Outside Dimensions: 9.75" x 6.625" x 4.25" ; Inside Dimension: 8.75" x 5.625" x 3" (1" space above in lid);.
