Step onto the battlefield of history with the Italfama Napoleon Chess Set, paired with the elegance of Italfama’s elm burl chess case. This complete package captures the grandeur of the Napoleonic era in finely crafted metal chessmen and a luxurious board-and-storage combination designed to showcase and protect them.
The Napoleon chessmen feature iconic figures from French history—Napoleon Bonaparte, Empress Josephine, and key officers of the French army—brought to life with intricate detail. Each piece is turned and finished from solid brass and nickel-plated cast zinc, giving the set a brilliant two-tone luster and satisfying weight. From plumed military hats to engraved bases, the artistry reflects Italfama’s mastery of precision metalwork. With a commanding 3.6" king and 6 lbs. of total weight, these pieces provide both elegance and durability for serious play or display.
To complete the set, Italfama’s elm burl chess case serves as both an elegant chessboard and a secure storage solution. Crafted in Italy from elm burl and erable veneer, the board’s rich brown-orange hues and subtle grain patterns are enhanced by a high-gloss finish and a sleek black delimiter. A pull-out drawer, lined and divided into 32 compartments, protects each piece individually. More than a playing surface, this case is a statement of luxury furniture that will enhance any home or office.
Together, the Napoleon chessmen and elm burl case form a complete luxury package that combines history, artistry, and function—perfect for collectors, history enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a refined centerpiece.
