There is an tactile elegance to this chess set that is rare to find. The board which doubles as a case is beautifully finished re-purposed teak wood inlaid with soapstone squares. The chess pieces are so exquisitely detailed it is a testament to the artisans who hand carve each and every one of them.

It was fully handmade in Saharanpur, India by skilled artisans. Specifications Size: 203x203x40mm Chess piece height: 21-38mmNot suitable for children under 36 months due to small parts.Made in India
