AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This lot consists of a luxurious chess set and backgammon game.

The set has a luxurious appearance thanks to the glossy lacquer on the folding board and on the chess pieces. Great to use as a display piece. The chess pieces are deep cherry red and in wood tones, and thus very glossy.

The chess pieces are handmade, very elegantly turned and felted with a fabric coating.
The king measures 9 cm.
The bishop measures 7.5 cm.
The pawn measures 6 cm.

Inside the folding board there is a wooden backgammon playing field. There are 30 stones and 2 dice.

The chessboard measures 44 cm x 44 cm and is in excellent condition; it can be folded closed. The hooks work well and are original.
The field size is 4.5 cm.

Small signs of use are noticeable.

This beautiful game box is well packed and sent by registered mail.
