African ebony chess set, hand-carved wood in African style, where every single piece is unique and different. One of the kings is 71 mm and one of the pawns is 48 mm. The weight is balanced and the work of every piece is like a different ethnic artwork. The board (30 x 28cm) is also made of the same African wood and is originally hand-carved with African design (see pictures). The irregular sizes make this chess set a unique item on the market at a very good price. Take the opportunity to decorate your house with this collector's chess set. 


African handmade ebony chess set with a detailed tribal design. Elephant design on the board.
