Chess Set Renouveau
in Ash Burl

Les Échiquiers du Roi are delighted to present the Renouveau Chess Set, a luminous creation that celebrates renewal through refined materials and a bold yet subtle detail.

The board, made from ash burl and maple, captivates with the living depth of its grain and the brilliance of its glossy finish. Framed by a slightly raised border, it combines a sculptural presence with perfect readability. A fine line of pastel green marquetry underlines the squares, bringing a fresh, contemporary accent—discreet, but unmistakable.

The pieces, hand-carved from ivory boxwood and red padauk, create a warm and elegant contrast. Their matt finish offers a natural touch and highlights the purity of the lines. Weighted and felted, they ensure stable, quiet play. The king stands at 3.75 in (9.5 cm) in a set designed for both regular games and decorative display.

The Renouveau Chess Set is a set of character: bright, refined and original—made for those who appreciate craftsmanship and details that refresh the classic codes of chess.
