This chess set includes our Queen's Gambit Staunton with ebonized and natural boxwood pieces matched with Italfama's Leatherette Chess Board and Storage Tray. If you've seen the Netflix series The Queen's Gambit, you saw Beth playing a game of chess with these pieces. This model is nearly identical to our German Knight with a few minor tweaks no one would even notice. But we wanted to offer exact same set so we made the changes and named it after the oldest chess openings in the game, The Queen's Gambit. Like our German Knight, this set is simple yet attractive and is the ideal set for your everyday chess game. Unencumbered by fine detail, these chess pieces will stand up to the rigor of daily play for a lifetime. This king is 3.75” tall with a base diameter of 1.375”, an ideal size for tournament play or the casual game at home. Pieces are heavily weighted for exceptional stability and have thick green baize pads on the bottom for a soft cushion and allow pieces to slide smoothly across the chess board.
The black and brown faux leather of Italfama's Leatherette Chess Board and Storage Tray creates a beautiful chess set matched with these special pieces. Under the board are felt covered compartments for holding each piece when you want to put them away. On the flipside of the chess board is a backgammon board and plastic backgammon checkers are included. The chess board and storage tray have decorative leather-stamped designs that add to the look of a real leather covering. The board has 2" squares and the overall size of the tray is 19 inches and 2.25 inches tall. The Queen's Gambit chess set will inspire and add to the thrill of every game you play!
