This handcrafted chess set pairs our French Lardy Staunton Chess Pieces with our Macassar Ebony & Maple Folding Chess Case — delivering classic tournament styling with practical built-in storage. Inspired by the iconic French Lardy design, these pieces are crafted from solid ebonized boxwood and natural boxwood. The rich ebony-black finish offers the elegant look of genuine ebony, beautifully contrasted by creamy natural boxwood pieces. Each piece is heavily weighted, finished with a polished lacquer for durability, and fitted with green baize pads for smooth, quiet movement. Two extra queens are included for pawn promotion.The 3.75" king with a 1.5" base provides excellent stability and presence, making this set ideal for both casual play and competitive games.
Inside the case are two spacious storage compartments, each lined with soft green felt to help cushion and protect your pieces during storage or transport. We provide two green zipper chess piece bags to hold chess pieces and prevent them from loosely ratting around inside. Brass-plated latches secure the case firmly when closed, keeping everything safely contained. Large enough for an enjoyable playing experience yet compact enough for travel and to store away neatly. This folding chess case delivers both elegance and convenience — making it an exceptional value for players who appreciate craftsmanship and practicality.
