Chess Set Lignée
in Rosewood et Maple

Les Échiquiers du Roi are delighted to present the Lignée Chess Set in Rosewood and Maple, a creation that embodies transmission, elegance and the memory of fine craftsmanship.

Each set in the Lignée collection tells a story: that of an ancestral art, reimagined with uncompromising standards. This model pairs the deep warmth of rosewood with the soothing clarity of maple, in a contrast that is both noble and balanced. The ensemble evokes continuity, lineage, the bond between generations—an enduring symbol of heritage and refinement.

The pieces, hand-turned and polished, stand out through the softness of their matt finish and the purity of their proportions. Every king, knight and pawn reflects European craftsmanship where precision and harmony are paramount. Their perfectly calibrated weight and felted base provide ideal stability and a delicate contact with the board.

The board, with a measured glow, is crafted in fine marquetry. The deep black of stained poplar meets the bright clarity of sycamore, framed by a lacquered rosewood border. Its visual balance makes it as much an ornamental piece as a field for thought. In the light, it subtly catches reflections, revealing the nobility of its natural grain.

The Lignée Chess Set is a tribute to the permanence of beautiful things: those we receive, cherish and pass on—an exceptional piece for those who see chess as an experience to live as much as to admire.
