Queen's Gambit Chess Set Ebonized & Boxwood Pieces with Sunrise Mahogany Board - King

This chess set includes our Queen's Gambit Staunton with ebonized and natural boxwood pieces matched with a mahogany and sycamore chess board. If you've seen the Netflix series The Queen's Gambit, you saw Beth playing a game of chess with these pieces. This model is nearly identical to our German Knight with a few minor tweaks no one would even notice. But we wanted to offer exact same set so we made the changes and named it after the oldest chess openings in the game, The Queen's Gambit. Like our German Knight, this set is simple yet attractive and is the ideal set for your everyday chess game. Unencumbered by fine detail, these chess pieces will stand up to the rigor of daily play for a lifetime. This king is tall with a base diameter of 1.375", an ideal size for tournament play or the casual game at home. Pieces are heavily weighted for exceptional stability and have thick green baize pads on the bottom for a soft cushion and allow pieces to slide smoothly across the chess board.This beautiful chess board comes from Sunrise Chess and Games in Poland and is an excellent choice for matching with the ebonized and boxwood pieces. This is a handcrafted inlaid chess board made from premium quality mahogany and sycamore veneer. The craftsmanship of the inlay work is superb. The squares are 2" and the overall size of the board is 18.9" and .5" thick. The board is finished in a polyurethane matte finish to seal and protect the wood while enhancing the natural colors. There are corner felt pads on the bottom of the board to protect whatever surface it sets on.Chess Pieces: Ebonized & Natural Boxwood; Hand polished lacquer finish; King Height: 3.75"; King Base: 1.5"; King Weight: 2.5 ounces; Chess Set Weight: 40 ounces; Includes 2 extra queens for pawn promotion; Green Baize Pads; Chess Board: Material: Mahogany & Sycamore Veneer over Wood Composites; Finish: Satin Polyurethane; Square Size: 2"; Overall Dimensions: 18.9" x .5" Thick; Made in Poland by Sunrise Chess & Games;.
