Chess Set Lauriers
in Boxwood & Mahogany

Les Échiquiers du Roi are proud to present the Lauriers Chess Set, an exceptional artisanal creation that honours the nobility of natural woods in their most authentic expression.

This set stands out through the subtle harmony of its materials. The pieces—made from boxwood for the light side and acacia for the dark—offer a gentle, warm contrast. Each wood is selected for the fineness of its grain, its robustness, and the depth of its natural tones. The matte finish preserves the living character of the wood and avoids any artificial shine. The 100 mm king carries a presence that is both understated and assured, within a balanced set of 34 pieces, all felted and weighted.

The board, handmade in Europe, combines maple and mahogany in a composition that is both legible and elegant. The orange-toned grain of the darker wood pairs perfectly with the creamy softness of the light squares. The engraved coordinates add a functionality appreciated by experienced players, while reinforcing the aesthetic dimension. With a 48 cm side, this board suits both home use and regular play.

Finally, an optional Sheesham wooden box allows you to store the pieces with care, forming a perfectly coherent ensemble with the set. View more photos and details of this beautiful chess box.

The Lauriers Chess Set is designed for lovers of beautiful objects who want a set that is functional, refined and made to last.
