St. George Antique Reproduction Chess Set in Antiqued Ebony & Boxwood - 3.75" King

Our St George antique reproduction chess set originates from the early 1800s and was named after the St. George Chess Club in England. This particular pattern and many very similar to it, were commonly used for chess including competitive play during the 19th century. Several companies produced this chess set in a variety of materials, sizes, and designs.

We chose this particular pattern because of the overall beauty of the profile and the handsome knights. As one would imagine, these pieces require a great deal of careful turning to reproduce the shape and detail in its original form. Playing chess will take on an extra charm and sense of nostalgia as you move the pieces and the game unfolds.

The boxwood pieces are stained to create the rich amber patina you would find on a real antique chess set a hundred years old. Both ebony and boxwood pieces are finished in a soft satin varnish for an antique look. The pieces are weighted for stability on the chess board and the bottoms are covered in green billiard cloth so that they slide easily from square to square.

Yugoslavia Staunton Chess Set in Red Sandalwood & Boxwood with Premier African Padauk Chess Board - 3.25" King

Our Yugoslavia Staunton chess sets originate from the Staunton chess set designed for the 1950 Chess Olympiad held in Dubrovnik,Yugoslavia. This unique and handsome Staunton design has since become a favorite for chess players around the world and one of our most popular chess sets. We made a few minor changes such as adding a tapered base to enhance appearance and balance of the chess pieces while maintaining the integrity of the intended design. You'll love playing with this chess set whether it's a casual game at home or a tournament match. We recommend a chess board with 2" squares (not included).
