Walnut Chess Set 20 Inch With Helena Flat Chess Board and Weighted Sheesham Morphy Staunton Chess Pieces 3.75 Inch

Experience the timeless allure of the Walnut Chess Set, where the rich grains of solid walnut merge with the artistry of Turkish craftsmen to create an exquisite chess board adorned with wood inlays inspired by Moorish geometric designs. In this masterful fusion, every element bears the mark of painstaking dedication, showcasing an array of intricate wood working cuts, scores, and shapes meticulously handset for an enchanting composition. This Walnut Chess Set is not merely a game, but a captivating work of art that transcends its functional purpose. Whether cherished as a perfect souvenir, chosen as a heartfelt gift for a loved one, or selected to grace a distinguished board collection, it captivates with vibrant colours and meticulous attention to detail. Each piece, from the Helena chess board to the chessmen, is a testament to the unparalleled skill of artisans who have dedicated their lives to their craft.
Among these masterpieces stand the Professional Staunton chess pieces, also known as the Paul Morphy Series of 1884, carved from blocks of wood with precision and care. These pieces pay homage to the legacy of Paul Charles Morphy, the American Chess player whose brilliance illuminated the chess world until his passing in 1884. Morphy’s impact on the game is immortalized in this set, where the highest quality woods are carved and polished to a smooth, natural finish. Adding a layer of protection, each piece is thoughtfully padded with thick green felt, ensuring the integrity of both the chessmen and the board. To enhance the grandeur of this set, a magnificently crafted walnut veneered chess piece storage box stands ready to house your cherished collection. Offering ample space for pieces ranging from 3 to 4 inches in size, this storage box boasts compatibility and elegance in equal measure. Its plush black velvet felt interior is a testament to the commitment to preserving your treasures. Embrace the heritage of the Walnut Chess Set, a remarkable fusion of artistry and strategy, and let the intricate designs and rich history elevate your chess experience.

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.
