Chess Set Alliance
in Rosewood

Les Échiquiers du Roi are delighted to present the Alliance Chess Set, a tribute to perfect balance—between tradition and modernity, strength and harmony.

This set embodies the union of noble materials and timeless design. Every element has been conceived to bring both playing comfort and visual beauty. It stands out as an object with character, always with the right sense of restraint: refined, understated and luminous.

The board, handmade in Europe, pairs the warmth of rosewood with the clarity of maple. Its natural grain, highlighted by a raw finish, gives each board an authentic singularity. With a 19.1 in (48 cm) side and 2 in (50 mm) squares, it offers optimal readability while fitting effortlessly into an elegant interior. The absence of shine creates a calm visual support, ideal for concentration.

The pieces—majestic without ostentation—are hand-carved from boxwood (light) and acacia (dark). The king, rising to 4 in (10 cm), embodies quiet authority, while every figure is carefully balanced, weighted and felted. The set stands out through a classic silhouette revisited with an eye for restraint and artisanal precision.

Choosing the Alliance Chess Set is to choose quiet elegance, discreet strength, and beauty in the details—an object of sharing and contemplation worthy of the finest interiors.
