The Macassar Chess Set, featuring a 20-inch wooden board with inlaid squares, offers a visually striking platform for intense chess matches. With its darker Macassar squares complementing the lighter Maple ones, this set exudes elegance and charm. Crafted in Spain to the highest standards, the board is built to withstand years of use. Accompanying this exquisite board are the Weighted Ebonised Zagreb Staunton Chess Pieces, renowned for their association with the Zagreb 1959 Series, named after the prestigious world championship tournament held in Croatia. Distinguished by their unique design elements, such as the color-reversed top portions of the king, queen, and bishop, and the intricately carved knight reminiscent of Russian chess piece styles, these pieces are meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans in Amritsar, India. Each piece is carved from specified wood blocks to ensure precision and authenticity. Completing the set is a luxurious walnut wood veneered chess piece storage box, generously sized to accommodate pieces ranging from 3 to 4 inches, lined with plush black velvet felt to safeguard against damage.
