Description from the seller

Chess set in gold-colored metal and tin in a leather-wrapped case, folding chessboard King 110 mm
King size 110 mm, the pawns 77 mm
A very nice lambskin-leather-wrapped case 40 x 21 x 20 cm with a space for each piece and a folding leather-wrapped chessboard 38 x 38 cm and playing squares of 45 mm that fit into a compartment of the case
Material: pieces in gold-colored metal and I think tin
Dating from: 1960s/1970s
Origin: Italy, complete with all 32 pieces
Feature: very beautiful condition for the pieces never played I think.
Original wooden box with some scratches and knocks, lock missing
Note:
Please study carefully all photographs as they constitute an important part of the description.

My sets are vintage, old or antique, used, with normal wear related to their history. Some have lasted over 100 / 150 years: that is what gives them their charm and authenticity.

Note: for buyers in the islands shipping will be adjusted if needed! Likewise for USA customers.
