This is a lovely medium sized folding chess set with real character. Hand finished from Mahogany and Birch it features an inlaid board with notation and a very robust sturdy cabinet. The chess pieces are fashioned in the staunton style with a very heavy European influence. They are non weighted and have black felt bases. What makes this chess set unique is the corner bevelling around the edges of the cabinet. They have been carefuly angled to expose the light birch wood which forms part of the unique character and design.A solid and very well made chess set that has been hand crafted in Europe. Plantation wood used - from a sustainable source in Eastern Europe.
