DESCRIPTION

Royal Blue puts colour at the centre: blue-dyed ash burr meets light maple squares. The glossy 50 cm board highlights the grain, while boxwood and burnt-boxwood pieces give structure to the position.

This model belongs to the Heritage Collection. Its board is handmade in Europe using our Precision craftsmanship. Weighted pieces with felted bases support each move and protect the board. Two extra queens allow pawn promotion without substituting another piece. The set is assembled in France.
