Classic Staunton design. Beautifully crafted from solid sheesham. 3.75 inch (95 mm) king. Two additional queens. Weighted for perfect balance. Bases covered with billiard cloth. Presented with a luxurious high gloss board. Our Executive Palisander Chess Set combines our Executive Sheesham and Boxwood Chessmen and the luxury Black Anegre, Palisander Rosewood and Maple Chess Board. The pieces themselves are constructed from solid, graded sheesham wood and have been styled with the Staunton design in mind. They feature very sleek and curved shanks which lead to a relatively wide base for chess pieces of this height. The board is finished in an ultra smooth gloss lacquer which reflects the pieces beautifully and will look at home in either a traditional or contemporary setting. This set includes two additional queens.
