Luxury Staunton Wooden Chess Pieces

Cut and turned by hand and keeps to the classic proportions without ornament for its own sake. Ebony and boxwood are left to speak plainly: deep black against warm cream, with the grain visible under a buff polish that reads as sheen rather than gloss. The 4″ king sits on a 1.7″ base - generous enough to hold the board without crowding it. Every piece is extra heavily weighted, so the set has the settled feel of something meant to stay in play for decades. Underneath, real black leather, not felt. Thirty-four pieces, including a second pair of queens for promotion.
