Ebony Chess Set 17 Inch With Helena Chess Board and Weighted Ebonised German Staunton Chess Pieces 3 Inch

Introducing an exquisite Ebony Chess Set, showcasing the masterful craftsmanship of Helena Art, where fine solid Ebony wood takes centre stage in both the chessboard and the pieces. This remarkable creation features intricate Mother of Pearl inlays, painstakingly handcrafted by Turkish artists. The process involves numerous delicate woodwork cuts, scores, and shapes, all meticulously set by skilled hands. Each piece in this set boasts vibrant, captivating colours and is impeccably fitted with precision, a testament to the expertise of our seasoned craftsmen.

Distinguished by its German Staunton style, this set, sometimes referred to as a Downhead set of chessmen, is meticulously crafted from solid blocks of wood. Every piece is thoughtfully adorned with felt to protect the surface of the chessboard from any potential damage. The attention to detail is evident in the weight of each piece, meticulously calibrated to prevent any instability, and the addition of felt on their bases ensures the board remains unscathed.

The knight, characterized by its running diagonal lines and closed mouth, evokes a sense of determination. A robust rook and an intricately engraved bishop contribute to the unique charm of this set. These Staunton chessmen are expertly crafted by the skilled artisans of Amritsar, India, and Chessgammon takes pride in offering the best of these designs to enthusiasts.

To complement this exquisite ensemble, we provide a beautifully veneered walnut wood chess piece storage box. This spacious box accommodates pieces ranging from 3 inches to 4 inches, ensuring convenient storage. Padded and coated in elegant black velvet felt, the storage box ensures that your cherished chess pieces remain protected from any potential damage. An exceptional and high quality ebony chess set.
