Atlantic Grand Rosewood Chess Set with Wooden Case

A large Staunton chess set that combines our fabulous Atlantic Rosewood and Boxwood chessmen with a wonderful Montgoy Palisander Rosewood and Maple chess board at almost 22 inches in width. This is a fantastic chess set to play on! The chessmen are heavy, balanced and finished to perfection. The detailing of the carving is exceptional as is the quality and depth of tone found in the solid Indian Rosewood used throughout. Each chess piece is weighted and has a protective felt base. The chessboard is made in Spain using European sourced Palisander and Maple veneers. it has a wonderful light satin lacquer coating which provides a sooth playing surface and offers a decree of protection to the wood. Finally, the set includes a solid Golden Rosewood ( Sheesham) chess piece case and is a traditional sliding lid design. Inside the case there is a large plush fabric lined compartment for the chessmen, prefect for stowing the pieces when not in play. This really is an impressive, brawny Staunton chess set that will provide years, if not generations of glorious chess playing.

Please note that when the chessmen are placed in the box it is normal and intentional for them to lay down on top of each other. They are NOT intended to stand up inside the box.

The chess board in this set has been expertly crafted by Rechapados Ferrer in Spain using precision laser cutting techniques and stunning wooden veneers combined with expert lacquering and finishing. The underside of the board is finished in a satin veneer that is a different colour from the playing surface of the board. The veneers used for the underside may vary in colour from batch to batch.
