This luxurious chess set brings together an old classic Staunton design with our beautiful and contemporary Macassar Ebony and Maple Chess Case. Our British Staunton is a close replica of an old British Chess Company chess set. This set features a sleek profile, a smaller than normal knight and an unusually tall rook which many players prefer. The British Staunton is a wonderful chess set for both a serious game of chess and displaying in your home. Our Macassar chess case has spectacular colors ranging from orange-brown to black and a unique wood grain pattern unlike any other. The glass-like polyurethane finish enhances the colors even more creating a striking piece of chess décor. Black chess pieces are the perfect match while standing out prominently against the multi-color Macassar. The case has 2 drawers, one on each players side, with 16 individual compartments for holding a standard 32 piece set. The compartments are lined with a soft beige color velour material that looks great and will protect your chess pieces from scratches, dents, or damage of any kind.
