ID 1352753739 Fierce Knight Staunton Chess Set Golden Rosewood & Boxwood Pieces with Classic Walnut Board & Box - 3" King
This beautiful handcrafted chess set includes our Fierce Knight Staunton with golden rosewood and boxwood pieces matched with our Classic Walnut and Maple Chess Board, and Classic Walnut Chess Box. The colors of golden rosewood and boxwood chess pieces go perfect with the walnut and maple chess board. Our Fierce Knight is a blend of contemporary and traditional Staunton design featuring knights that are carved with realistic features. The perked ears, eyes, mouth, and mane create a fierce looking countenance that gives this set its name. The pieces have an elegant profile that is carefully turned to perfection on every piece and the golden rosewood and boxwood are hand polished to a rich sheen. The pieces are triple weighted for exceptional stability on the chess board. The bottom of the pieces are padded with the traditional thick green baize for easily sliding from square to square and a soft feel when placing. 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.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"; King Base: 1.375"; King Weight: 1.8 Ounces; Chess Set Weight: 32 Ounces; 2 spare queens are included for pawn promotion; Green Billiard Cloth Pads; Chess Board: Material: Walnut & Maple Veneer & Wood Materials; Finish: Satin Polyurethane (soft sheen); Square Size: 1.75"; Dimensions: 17.5" x 17.5" x .5"; 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;
