In 1812 the French army, led by Napoleon Bonaparte, invaded Russia in an attempt to destroy Tsar Alexander I’s Russian army. Known as the Patriotic War Of 1812, this epic conflict has gone down in history as one of the greatest battles of the long Napoleonic Wars.

The masterful chess craftsmen at Italfama in Florence, Italy have created these two legendary armies in miniature form – two sets of beautifully cast crushed stone resin and painstakingly hand-painted chess armies with an intricate level of detail.

A set of chessmen such as these - of historical background and legend - deserves only the very best and we have chosen another product also crafted by Italfama. Based in Florence, Italfama are, as we already know, renowned worldwide for creating the most stunningly beautiful chess boards using Dark Walnut, Briarwood and Elm in 16, 20 and 23 inches.

They also supply us with the most beautiful leatherette compartmentalised chess cabinets (with removable chess board lid) at a more compact 13.75 inch. The perfect battlefield for your game and storage facility for when pieces are not in play.

The board with its sublime black and gold squares creates the lid of the cabinet and has a dainty printed border also in gold. The board is finished off with fabric stitching all around the edge, creating a unique effect and also providing good protection for your board. On the reverse of your chess board is a screen-printed backgammon playing area in a marble silver grey and charcoal colour theme.

The base or cabinet part of this product has a velour-coated compartmentalised insert for keeping your beloved chess pieces protected. There are also 15 cream and 15 dark charcoal-coloured counters that can be used for draughts on the chess side and backgammon on the reverse. The cabinet also comes complete with backgammon dice (2 black, 2 white and 1 white doubling dice).

As you would expect from a world-class manufacturer of superb quality products, this board also comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Italfama themselves.

This set is sure to be a hit with any fans of military history and/or chess enthusiasts. Check out our shipping options and get yours ordered today.
