Introducing the majestic Llamrei Staunton Chess Set, a stunning masterpiece inspired by the timeless legend of King Arthur's noble mare. Crafted with meticulous care, this heirloom-quality set seamlessly blends traditional Staunton elements with a contemporary flare. At the heart of this set lies the exquisitely sculpted knight, adorned with intricate details such as a decorative mane and lifelike features, including a bridal and reins. Crafted by master carvers renowned for their precision, each knight is a true work of art, ensuring consistency and excellence across every piece. Standing a full 4.25-inches tall and a wide base diameter of 1.8 inches, the Llamrei commands attention on any chessboard. Crafted from the finest African padauk and boxwood, each piece is meticulously weighted for optimal balance and stability during play. The pieces have thick green baize pads so you can smoothly slide your pieces across the board or sit down softly. We include an extra queen for each color for pawn promotion and a certificate of authenticity so you will always know what the chess set name is, the type of wood, the year it was made, and where it came from.
African padauk is one of the most colorful of the exotic woods and is often referred to as blood rosewood. We designed our Padauk and Bird's-eye Maple Chess Board specifically for these chess sets and they look spectacular together. The bird's-eye maple is gorgeous and its' rich golden color is perfect for contrasting with either the ebony or padauk. The black inlay border and molded-edge add an elegant touch to the board and enhances the colors of the padauk and bird's-eye maple even more.
Our Bird's-Eye Maple Classic Chess Box is wonderfully constructed and reminiscent of the old heirloom quality chess boxes from years ago. The box is covered in beautiful bird's-eye maple veneer that perfectly matches the chess board squares and frame with a lustrous semi-gloss polyurethane finish. The interior is lined with a thick emerald-green baize just like we use for the pads on our chess pieces. The box has a divider in the center for conveniently storing the black and white pieces separately. We use high quality brass plated quadrant hinges that neatly recess into the wall of the box and a brass plated lock and key for securing the lid when closed. It's the perfect chess box for safely storing and protecting these special chess pieces. For collectors and enthusiasts alike, the Llamrei Staunton Chess Set is an essential addition, embodying the timeless allure of traditional Staunton features and the elegance of contemporary design.
