Description

Ebony Chess Set 20 Inch with Helena Chess Board and Weighted Ebonised German Staunton Chess Pieces 3.75 Inch

Immerse yourself in the elegance of the Ebony Chess Set by Helena Art, where the commanding presence of solid Ebony wood graces both the chessboard and the exquisite chess pieces. Enhanced by the intricate artistry of Mother of Pearl inlays, each design is a testament to the skill of Turkish artists, accentuated by Moorish influences and geometric patterns. The craftsmanship involves countless delicate woodwork cuts, scores, and shapes, all painstakingly handset. This ebony chess set emanates with a symphony of vibrant and captivating colours, while every piece stands as a hallmark of precision and mastery, meticulously achieved by the hands of the most highly skilled and experienced craftsmen.

Enter the realm of the German Staunton design, also occasionally referred to as a Downhead set of chessmen. Meticulously crafted from blocks of wood, this set is thoughtfully enriched with felt on every individual piece, ensuring the chess board’s surface remains unmarred. The German Staunton chess pieces are polished to attain a natural finish, a testament to the prowess of craftsmen renowned for conceiving some of the world’s most distinguished and superior-quality chess sets and pieces. Each piece is a testament to meticulous attention to detail. The Downhead or German Staunton set is characterized by the knight, adorned with running diagonal lines and a resolute closed mouth, evoking a sense of determination. The staunched rook and engraved bishop contribute to the set’s unique identity. Chessgammon takes pride in offering these designs of Staunton chessmen, meticulously crafted by the finest and most skilled artisans in Amritsar, India.

Included with this exceptional ensemble is a magnificently veneered chess piece storage box, meticulously crafted from exquisite Walnut wood. Spacious and versatile, this box accommodates pieces ranging in size from 3 inches to as large as 4 inches, ensuring compatibility with a variety of ebony chess set sizes. Lined with sumptuous black velvet felt, the storage box provides a secure sanctuary for your cherished chess pieces, preventing any potential damage.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

We are a family business that focus strictly around customer service and ensuring our customers have a fantastic all round experience. We are also the largest store selling both Chess and Backgammon sets of great variations.

A common question that confuses many, infact there is no official provider of staunton chess pieces. These chess pieces are named after a gentleman, Howard Staunton who put forward a design of chess pieces made with precision and weight to prevent them toppling over. Staunton chess pieces are all manufactured by skilled craftsmen in Amritsar, India.

This is the official Chessgammon store, we are also present on eBay, Amazon and ETSY. However purchasing from the incorrect listing will mean you may be purchasing from a 3rd party dropshipper. This makes it incredibly difficult for you to arrange replacements/ complain about any potential damages. 

We ensure a safe and secure payment checkout pathways, using government approved payment systems and ofcourse Paypal checkout available for safe measure.
