Step into Greek mythology with the Battle of Troy Theme Chess Set, depicting the legendary war waged by the Achaeans (Greeks) against the city of Troy after Paris took Helen from King Menelaus of Sparta. Each piece is crafted from durable polystone and hand-painted with meticulous detail, capturing the heroes, soldiers, and mythical characters of this epic tale. The 3.25-inch kings and intricately sculpted figures make each game visually captivating and immersive.
The set is paired with our Gray Ash Burl & Erable Deluxe Chess Board, handcrafted by Rechapados Ferrer in Spain. The gray-stained ash burl highlights natural variations in the wood grain, while a triple inlay pinstripe (white-black-white) and an extra-wide frame create a sophisticated border around the playing area. The board is sealed with high-gloss polyurethane, giving a glass-like finish, and features 1.75-inch squares with overall dimensions of 17.5" x 17.5" x 0.5", providing a striking backdrop for the hand-painted theme pieces.
Combining mythological storytelling, artistry, and playability, this Battle of Troy chess set is perfect for collectors, history enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a display-worthy and engaging centerpiece for home or office.
