ID 1352753713 Fischer-Spassky Commemorative Chess Set Ebonized & Boxwood Pieces with Classic Walnut Board - 375" King

This special handcrafted chess set includes our Fischer-Spassky Commemorative Series with Ebonized and Natural Boxwood pieces matched with our Classic Walnut and Maple Chess Board. Our Fischer-Spassky Series Commemorative Series Chess Set is a reproduction of the chess set used by the legendary American Grandmaster Bobby Fischer when he won the 1972 World Chess Championship against the reigning World Champion Grandmaster Boris Spassky in Reykjavik, Iceland. The simple and handsome design along with the history behind it has proven a favorite for generations of chess players. The pieces are beautifully beautifully designed with traditional Staunton shapes and simple detail that will withstand the wear and tear of regular use. This set features a 3.75" tall king with a base of 1.625", an ideal set for tournament play and casual games at home with family and friends. Pieces have green billiard cloth pads for a soft landing on the chess board and are nicely weighted for stability on the chess board. We include 2 extra queens for pawn promotion.Our Classic Walnut and Maple Chess Board is wonderfully handcrafted from the finest veneers and sealed in a semi-gloss polyurethane finish that both enhances and protects the character of the wood. This board features 2" squares and has a footprint of 19.5" and is .5" thick. We framed the squares in a wide black delimiter to both accentuate the playing area and enhance the rich color of the walnut and maple. For balance of design and visual aesthetics, we enveloped the board with a frame the full width of the squares. The precision of the inlay work across the entire chess board is remarkable. This beautiful chess board will enhance the enjoyment of every chess game you play on it.This history behind this special chess set will make every game you play more interesting and fun.Chess Pieces: Ebonized & Natural Boxwood; Pieces individually hand polished with solid lacquer and buffing wheel; King Height: 3.75"; King Base: 1.625"; King Weight: 3 Ounces; Chess Set Weight: 48 Ounces; 2 spare queens are included for pawn promotion; Green Baize Cloth Pads; Chess Board: Material: Walnut & Maple Veneer & Wood Materials; Finish: Satin Polyurethane (soft sheen); Square Size: 2"; Dimensions: 19.5" x 19.5" x .5"; Cloth covered bottom to protect whatever it sits on;
