The Art Deco Sheesham and Walnut Chess Set

Carved from golden rosewood (sheesham)and boxwood, the Art Deco Chess Pieces are cylindrically shaped series of contemporary pieces. Their chic, minimalist design brings with it a simplicity not usually associated with the complex game of chess. The result is our wonderful Art Deco Chess Set which brings style, quality and functionality to the table.The bold, geometric shapes boast more clean lines than traditional chess pieces, with the bishops and knights noticeably adherent to Art Deco conventions as opposed to the Staunton style.The king is 3.5 inches (89 mm) tall with a base diameter of 1.2 inches (30 mm), and so we have matched it with a stunning 15.75 inch walnut and maple board. These boards are crafted by the world famous Rechapados Ferrer in Spain and are renowned for their exquisite quality and finish.The two components together create a stylish set that would be the envy of friends and family or be the perfect gift for a special occasion.
