AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent amber chess set, King 77 mm tall, board 33.5 by 33.5 cm, which also serves as the original box. The set is in perfect condition. Year: 1990s. Rare and valuable model (worth about 600–700 euros at purchase in the 1990s in Poland, about 350,000 zlotys) before the currency devaluation in 1995, which was a considerable sum and a luxury item at that time.
