This is a full tournament-sized set that features a 3.9" King with a 1.625" diameter base. The Chess pieces are hand carved by our master artisans one piece at a time. The jet black ebonized pieces are almost impossible to tell from real ebony and the boxwood is the perfect light amber color.

A decorative black, red, and orange weave delimiter separates the squares from the frame and the board is sealed in a matte finish.
