This is our Deluxe Old Club Series chess set with ebonized and natural boxwood pieces. The Deluxe Old Club is an ageless classic that for years has been a favorite with players for its distinguished knight and traditional Staunton design. Often referred to as the Reykjavik, the Deluxe Old Club is well recognized having been used on countless chess book covers and other chess art. The ebonized pieces are boxwood that is dyed solid black and polished to a beautiful luster so that it looks like real ebony. This is a tournament size set with a 3.75" tall king. The pieces are heavily weighted for exceptional balance and stability while thick green billiard cloth pads allow the pieces to slide smoothly across the chess board. We include 2 extra queens for pawn promotion.

    I love chess and I love the chess store.

    The Deluxe Old Club Staunton Chess Set in ebonized boxwood and boxwood looks classic and professional on the recent walnut and maple board I purchased. The pieces just like the board provide exceptional quality. The weight, proportion, and beauty of the pieces encourages family and friends to want to play and practice more and more. The board was perfect by the way with its 2 1/4 squares and laminate wood grain beautifully matched. I also find the website to provide more highly organized and useful information than others. After having talked with customer service two times I vouch for their attention to detail and support. I love chess! I love the chess store!

    Old Players Club Set

    Posted by Don Hatfield on 24th Oct 2015

    Purchased this set in December and am I ever pleased. I have always preferred my old Drueke Players Choice set for tournament play, and have always wanted an affordable wood set that comes close in design. This set is it. It's an incredible set with high quality, and a joy to use. Couldn't be more pleased...that's two sets I have bought from The Chess Store, but it won't be the last.
