Description from the seller
Rare ANRI Toriart “Charlemagne” Chess Set (1960s/70s) – 11.5 cm Pieces – Perfect Condition with Original Case
Splendid and prestigious vintage collectible figurative chess set, produced by the renowned Italian manufacturer ANRI (Toriart line) in Val Gardena between the late 1960s and early 1970s. The set is inspired by historical figures from the medieval court of King Charlemagne.
• Condition: Perfect and flawless (Mint condition). All 32 pieces are 100% structurally intact: they have no chips, cracks, glued-on parts, or paint loss—defects unfortunately common on the lances, crowns, and horses in this series.
• Dimensions: This is the sought-after large tabletop version. The King measures exactly 115.60 mm (measured with a digital caliper).
• Authenticity: 100% original and verified. The original period double labels are present under the bases of the main pieces (a gold oval “Toriart” sticker and a rectangular “ANRI” sticker). The case has the original silver-colored “ANRI Italy” metal seal on the bottom.
• Case: Original maple wood case with custom-shaped interior compartments to individually protect each piece. Original brass snap clasp and burgundy felt protective covering on the outside bottom.
A display-quality lot of the highest standard, ideal for discerning collectors or lovers of art chess.
