ID 1352753737 French Lardy Staunton Chess Set Golden Rosewood & Boxwood Pieces with Classic Walnut Board & Box - 325" King

This attractive handcrafted chess set includes our French Lardy with golden rosewood and boxwood matched with our Classic Walnut and Maple chess board and matching Classic Walnut Chess Box. Our French Lardy Staunton originates from the classic model produced by the French Lardy Chess Company many years ago. The simple and handsome design has proven a favorite for generations of chess players. The pieces are beautifully shaped with simple detail that will withstand the wear and tear of regular use. This set features a 3.25" tall king with a base of 1.375", an ideal set for 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. The golden rosewood has rich golden-brown colors and a beautiful grain while the cream colored natural boxwood is the perfect wood for the white chess pieces. The pieces are hand polished and lacquered to a beautiful luster. We include a certificate of authenticity so you will always know what the chess set is, where it came from, and when it was made. The French Lardy continues to be one of the most popular chess sets ever made and is an excellent choice for your chess game!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 1.75" squares and has a footprint of 17.5" 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.The chess box is wonderfully constructed and reminiscent of the old heirloom quality chess boxes from many years ago. The box is covered in walnut veneer and the interior is lined with a thick green baize just like we use for the pads on our chess pieces. The box has a divider in the center for storing the black and white pieces separately. We used high quality recessed hinges and a brass plated lock for securing the lid. We include 2 keys in case one ever gets lost.Chess Pieces: Golden Rosewood & Boxwood; Pieces individually hand polished with solid lacquer and buffing wheel; King Height: 3.25"; King Base: 1.375"; King Weight: 2 Ounces; Chess Set Weight: 32 Ounces; 2 spare queens are included for pawn promotion; Green Baize Pads; Includes Certificate of Authenticity; Chess Board: Material: Walnut & Maple Veneer over Wood Composites; Black Inlay Border Around Playing Area; Finish: Satin Polyurethane; Square Size: 1.75"; Overall Dimensions: 17.5" x 17.5" x .5"; Pads on the bottom to protect the surface it sets on; Chess Box: Material: Walnut Veneers & Other Wood; Finish: Satin Polyurethane; Outside Dimensions: 8.25" x 5.625" x 3.75" ; Inside Dimension: 7.25" x 4.5" x 2.5" (.75" space above in lid); High Quality Hinges and Lock - Comes with 2 Keys;
