Description from the seller

Luxury Staunton Chess

Staunton chess is not just a piece design; it is the universal standard of modern chess.
In the second half of the 19th century, the International Chess Federation (FIDE) adopted the Staunton model as the sole official standard for international tournaments.

The classic luxury standard uses high-quality wood, ebonized or boxwood for the black pieces, and natural boxwood for the white pieces. They are incredibly durable.

The pieces have a wide base, with a column- or pedestal-shaped form that gives them a low center of gravity, with a very distinctive carving at their base. They have green felt on the base to glide smoothly.
The pieces are instantly recognizable at a glance, which prevents confusion during rapid games.

With a King height of 7.5 cm and a board made of Sapele wood and Maple, 40 cm wide. It is a game of perfect size for playing or decorating.

It is a high-quality set that is in PERFECT CONDITION. In its original packaging.

It will be protected to prevent damage during shipping. With tracking number
