This traditional handcrafted chess set includes our Deluxe Old Club with ebonized and natural boxwood pieces matched with our Classic Mahogany and Maple Chess Board. Our Deluxe Old Club is an ageless classic that for years has been a favorite with players for its distinguishable knight and traditional Staunton design. The Deluxe Old Club is often displayed on the front cover of countless chess books and has been used for plastic chess set models because of its popularity with club and tournament players. This set features a 3.25” tall king with a base of 1.375”, an ideal set for casual games at home with family and friends. Pieces have green billiard cloth pads for a soft landing on the chess board and are nicely weighted for stability. The jet black ebonized pieces look almost like real ebony and they make a beautiful contrast against the warm brown-orange color of the mahogany board. We include a certificate of authenticity so you will always know what the chess set is, where it came from, and when it was made.

Our Classic Mahogany and Maple Chess Board is wonderfully handcrafted from the finest veneers and sealed in a semi-gloss polyurethane finish that both enhances and protects the character of the wood. This board features 1.75” squares and has a footprint of 17.5" and is .5” thick. We framed the squares in a wide black delimiter to both accentuate the playing area and enhance the rich color of the mahogany and maple. For balance of design and visual aesthetics, we enveloped the board with a frame the full width of the squares. The precision of the inlay work across the entire chess board is remarkable. This beautiful chess board will enhance the enjoyment of every chess game you play on it.

    This is quite the nice addition to my chess sets. I wanted a chess set that would look appealing in our living room. The mahogany board is beautiful. The wood pieces have an excellent weight to them and they all look great as well. I prefer the very distinguishable colors of these particular chess pieces compared to some of the other chess set pieces that I looked at. It is just a wonderfully playable chess set. I highly recommend this set!
