Since its introduction in 2001, our Fierce Knight Series Handcrafted Chess Set has been a favorite among chess enthusiasts, admired for its bold knight design and expert craftsmanship. The fierce expression of the knight—with sharply sculpted ears, focused eyes, and defined features—gives this set a distinctive personality that stands out on any board.
This large, tournament-quality set features kings measuring 4 inches tall with a 1.75-inch base diameter, offering exceptional balance and presence. Crafted from premium ebonized and natural boxwood, the ebonized wood beautifully emulates the look and feel of genuine ebony but at less than half the price, making it a smart and elegant choice for serious players and collectors.
Each piece is carefully weighted for stability and designed with a graceful Staunton-inspired profile, creating a cohesive and elegant set from king to pawn. Thick green baize pads provide a soft cushion, protecting your chessboard while allowing smooth, silent movement. Included are two extra queens for pawn promotion and a certificate of authenticity verifying the wood type, origin, and date of manufacture—assuring you of the set’s quality and provenance.
