Imported from Italy, this handcrafted Scali chess set combines the distinctive beauty of genuine alabaster with an elegant and practical storage solution. The frameless board is composed entirely of opaque black and translucent agate-colored alabaster squares, creating a clean, uninterrupted playing surface that showcases the stone’s natural veining, subtle variations, and depth of color. The matching pieces are handcrafted from the same opaque black and translucent agate-colored alabaster, then carefully polished to a smooth, lustrous finish that enriches their colors and gives them the jewel-like appearance for which Italian alabaster is prized. Because alabaster is a natural stone, every board and set of pieces has its own unique patterns and character.
The board rests freely on top of an elegant inlaid wood storage tray crafted in beautiful colors selected to coordinate with the black and agate-colored alabaster. Beneath the board, the black interior contains individual fitted compartments that keep every piece organized, separated, and protected between games. The board does not attach to the tray and can be lifted away easily whenever the pieces are needed. Combining a decorative chess set, protective storage, and refined Italian craftsmanship in one coordinated presentation, this handsome set is as practical as it is beautiful—an impressive gift, a distinctive addition to a collection, and a chess set worthy of being left on display.
