Fierce Knight Staunton Chess Set Acacia & Boxwood Pieces with Deluxe Tiger Ebony Board & Box – 4 King

Description

This chess set package includes a set of our Fierce Knight Staunton chess pieces in acacia and Boxwood together with our Deluxe Tiger Ebony and Maple Chess Board and Classic Walnut Chess Box. The colors of acacia and boxwood chess pieces go perfectly with the brown stripes of the tiger ebony and maple. Our Fierce Knight is a blend of contemporary and traditional Staunton design featuring knights that are carved with realistic features. The perked ears, eyes, mouth, and mane create a fierce looking countenance that gives this set its name. The pieces have an elegant profile that is carefully turned to perfection on every piece and the acacia and boxwood are hand polished to a rich sheen. The pieces are triple weighted for exceptional stability on the chess board. The bottom of the pieces are padded with the traditional thick green baize for easily sliding from square to square and a soft feel when placing. We include a certificate of authenticity so you will always know what the chess set is, where it came from, and when it was made.Our Tiger Ebony and Maple Deluxe Chess Board is made for us by Rechapados Ferrer and is a favorite for matching with ebony or ebonized chess pieces. This chess board features striped ebony, also known as tiger ebony which has irregular black and brown stripes similar to that of a tiger. This makes a spectacular back drop for the rich brown colors of the golden rosewood. A triple inlay (white-black-white) pinstripe around the playing area along with an extra wide frame gives the chess board an elegant look. The chess board is sealed in a polyurethane finish that both protects and enhances the natural beauty of the wood. Made from the finest veneer available, the precise inlay work by the craftsmen of Rechapados Ferrer is simply unsurpassed.The chess box is wonderfully constructed and reminiscent of the old heirloom quality chess boxes from many years ago. The box is covered in walnut veneer and the interior is lined with a thick green baize just like we use for the pads on our chess pieces. The box has a divider in the center for storing the black and white pieces separately. We used high quality recessed hinges and a brass plated lock for securing the lid. We include 2 keys in case one ever gets lost. Whether a collector or you are looking for one special chess set to display in your home, the Fierce Knight will enhance every game you play.Chess Pieces: Acacia & Boxwood; Pieces individually hand polished with solid lacquer and buffing wheel; King Height: 4; King Base: 1.75; King Weight: 1.8 oz.; Chess Set Weight: 32 oz.; 2 spare queens are included for pawn promotion; Green Billiard Cloth Pads; Chess Board: Material: Tiger Ebony & Maple Veneer over Wood Composites; Finish: Satin Polyurethane; Triple Black & Maple Delimiter Around Squares; Square Size: 2.125 (55mm); Overall Dimensions: 21.5 x .5 Thick; Chess Box: Material: Walnut Veneers & Other Wood; Finish: Satin Polyurethane; Outside Dimensions: 9.75 x 6.625 x 4.25 ; Inside Dimension: 8.75 x 5.625 x 3 (1 space above in lid); High Quality Hinges and Lock – Comes with 2 Keys;
