Grandmaster Chess Set
in Maple and Poplar Wood

Les Échiquiers du Roi is honored to present the Grandmaster Chess Set, a unique piece that embodies the quintessence of elegance and craftsmanship.

This set is an invitation to delve into the noble world of chess, where every move is thoughtful, every sculpted piece is a masterpiece, and each game becomes a memorable experience.

The board, of exceptional artisanal quality, is made of poplar stained black, sycamore, and walnut. Its dimensions of 19.1 x 19.1 in (50 cm by 50 cm) provide a spacious playing area where intense black, beige, and light brown blend perfectly, offering both clarity and aesthetics. The 2 in (50 mm) squares, laser-cut with precision, ensure optimal legibility while highlighting the delicate details of the marquetry.

The chess pieces, finely carved from boxwood (Gardenia latifolia), are a true tribute to tradition. The dark pieces, ebonized, contrast beautifully with the natural light pieces. The king, standing at 3.75 in (93 mm) in height, rises majestically, symbolizing power and authority on the battlefield. Each piece is weighted and felted, providing unmatched stability and playing comfort.

The optional faux leather chess box adds an extra touch of refinement. Designed to protect and elevate your pieces, it serves as a perfect showcase, combining utility and aesthetics. Its ideal dimensions allow perfect organization of each piece, thus preserving their integrity and beauty.
