Chess Set Vestige
in Ash Burl

Les Échiquiers du Roi present the Vestige Chess Set, a piece of character where the patina of time is echoed in noble materials and a deeply balanced design.

This model stands out through the richness of its board, crafted from ash burl and maple, framed by a slightly raised border. The glossy finish highlights the intricate grain of the burl, giving the surface a living depth. A fine line of red marquetry adds a subtle signature, like a trace—an elegant, controlled echo of the past.

The pieces, carved from ivory boxwood and red padauk, form a strong yet harmonious contrast. Their matt finish preserves the natural feel of the wood, while the weight and felt backing provide excellent playing comfort. The king stands at 3.75 in (9.5 cm) within a set conceived for smooth, stable play.

The Vestige Chess Set is designed for those who appreciate objects with presence—where craftsmanship, material and design evoke both heritage and modernity.
