These chess pieces are Rosewood and Boxwood, which can suit virtually any board color, however Mahogany, Macassar, and Walnut chess boards are most popular. Rosewood Chess Pieces vary from medium to dark brown, and is preferred due to is handsome, elegant appearance and strong grain variation. As a midrange wood, it is more affordable than some of the more exotic rosewoods, but still has a suitably rich appearance. Boxwood Chess Pieces are the near universal standard for 'white' chess pieces in hand-carved sets. It is a fairly easy wood to work with, and shows off good detail.

This luxurious chess board from Turkey is sure to impress. This opulent chess board blends artistry with chess fantastically and would look wonderful with traditional staunton and unique theme chessmen. This board is a wonderful addition to any chess collection.

Chess pieces made in India. Chess board made in Turkey. Deluxe humidor style storage box optional. This board is available in Mazel, Black and Walnut. Please choose a color.
