A superb chess set that contains everything you need. Our popular ebonized Downhead chess men are the ideal partner for the maple & mahogany chess board. The chess men have been expertly carved & polished using graded Boxwood & ebonized Boxwood which gives a very convincing effect of ebony. They are single weighted & generously felted on their bases. The board is a European made veneer with expertly inlaid squares. Also included is our number 4 chess case which has been crafted from solid birch wood. This fine chess set is appealing on so many levels. It's a robust yet elegant design that will endure years if not decades of chess playing.
