This handcrafted chess set pairs our German Knight Staunton in golden rosewood and boxwood with our Macassar Ebony & Maple Folding Chess Case — combining classic Staunton elegance with convenient built-in storage.
From the moment you lift a piece, you’ll notice the satisfying weight and timeless craftsmanship that connects generations of players. Each piece is meticulously carved and hand-finished, showcasing the rich golden-brown hues and natural grain of solid golden rosewood paired with natural boxwood. The 3.75" king and traditional Staunton silhouette provide excellent stability, making the set perfect for club, school, tournament, or casual play. Heavily weighted with thick green baize pads, the pieces glide smoothly and quietly across the board. Two extra queens are included for pawn promotion, and each set comes with a Certificate of Manufacture, ensuring authenticity and lasting enjoyment.
The set is matched with our Folding Macassar Ebony & Maple Chess Case — a refined and highly functional board that also provides secure storage for your pieces. Crafted from richly grained macassar ebony and natural maple veneers, the board showcases striking contrast between deep chocolate browns and light maple squares. The 2” squares provide an ideal playing surface for the included pieces, while the 17.75” footprint offers a comfortable playing area that fits easily on most tables or desks.
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.
