Vienna Coffee House Antique Reproduction Chess Set High Gloss Black & Boxwood Pieces with Black & Ash Burl Chess Board - King

This beautiful chess set includes our Vienna Coffee House antique reproduction chess pieces matched with our Black and Ash Burl Deluxe Chess Board. The Vienna Coffee House is elegant and has a unique design based on the sets produced in the early 1900's in Austria. There were many iterations of the basic design and our approach was to take the best elements from the most attractive models and create a chess set that had the best of everything. Our chess pieces are more refined and much higher quality than would have been available with the original sets. This is large set with a tall king and a base diameter of 1.7". The knights are wonderfully carved with handsome features and fine detail. These pieces are made from ebonized and natural boxwood and have a glass-like lacquered finish just like our Black & Ash Burl chess board.Our Black and Ash Burl High Gloss Deluxe Chess Board goes perfect with our high high gloss black and boxwood chess pieces. Imported from Spain, this is an inlaid chess board made for us by Rechapados Ferrer. The black and golden color of the natural ash burl are enhanced by the high gloss, glass-like finish creating an elegant backdrop for the burnt and boxwood chess pieces. A pinstripe delimiter around the squares and an extra-wide frame adds an elegant look to the board. The squares are 2.125" with the chess board measuring 21.5" x 21.5".Chess Pieces: Ebonized & Natural Boxwood; High Gloss Lacquer Finish; King Height: 4"; King Base: 1.7"; King Weight: 2.5 Ounces; Chess Set Weight: 36 Ounces; 2 spare queens are included for pawn promotion; Green Billiard Cloth Pads; Chess Board: Black & Ash Burl Veneer over MDF; High Gloss Polyurethane Finish with a Glass-Like Finish; Triple Layer Pinstripe Delimiter around Squares; Extra-Wide Frame; Square Size: 2.125"; Chess Board Size: 21.5" x 21.5" x .5"; Felt Pads on the Bottom; Made in Spain by Rechapados Ferrer;.
