The Emperor - Unique Wood Chess Set with Chess Board & Fitted Storage

This chess set is unique with exotic carving from the Carpathian mountains of Europe, and makes an excellent light weight travel chess set. Players on the go will appreciate the Emperor as a quality folding chess board with the chessmen in fitted compartments. Notice the intricate detail given to the crowns of the King and Queen and their airy elegance. In addition, the chess pieces of this travel chess set have been designed with wide bases to make them more difficult to jostle or tip. This fine chess set includes a wood chess board which doubles as a fitted storage container with ornate clasp for the chess pieces - just turn the double compartment carrying case over to reveal a chess board with algebraic coordinates!
 
The King is a worthy 2.75 inches tall and is, like each of the chess pieces, made from Beech wood - known for its fine grain and excellent finish. The chess board is 12.5" x 12.5" and and will look great on display at home or in the office. The interior of the storage compartment is lined with red felt which cushions the chess pieces for easy and safe transport. Of course the bottom of the pieces are felt-covered to protect the chess board from scratches.
 
This chess set is wonderfully detailed, unique and decorative - small enough for travel and large enough for comfortable playing. You will enjoy many years of chess play on this hand crafted wooden chess set.
