This Walnut Chess Set, where craftsmanship meets artistry. Picture a wooden chess board adorned with precisely inlaid squares, where the deep, rich Walnut harmoniously complements the lighter Maple squares. This isn’t just a chessboard; it’s a work of art, meticulously crafted in Spain, promising you years of enjoyment. It embodies the very essence of our Walnut Chess Set. But what truly distinguishes this set are our Professional Staunton chess pieces, sometimes referred to as the Paul Morphy Series of 1884. These pieces pay tribute to the legendary American chess player, Paul Charles Morphy, whose brilliance left an indelible mark on the chess world until his untimely passing in 1884. Morphy’s genius was evident as he consistently outplayed formidable opponents, most notably the Hungarian chess maestro Johann Lowenthal, all while still a young prodigy. Our chess pieces, sculpted in honor of the great Paul Morphy, are meticulously carved from the finest woods and polished to a smooth, natural finish. Each piece is thoughtfully padded with thick green felt, ensuring a seamless and secure chess experience. Crafted by hand in Amritsar, India, a haven for skilled artisans perfecting their craft, these pieces epitomize exceptional craftsmanship, and they’re an integral part of our Walnut Chess Set. Completing this exceptional chess set is a stunningly veneered chess piece storage box, painstakingly fashioned from the same Walnut wood that graces the board. This storage box is not just spacious; it’s versatile, accommodating pieces ranging from 3 to 4 inches in size. Lined with plush black velvet felt, it ensures your cherished chess pieces remain in impeccable condition. Elevate your chess journey with the Walnut Chess Set – where timeless aesthetics and unparalleled craftsmanship converge. It’s more than just a set; it’s a tribute to the enduring legacy of chess virtuoso Paul Morphy, embodied in every piece of our Walnut Chess Set.
