15’’ Handmade Chess Set with British Army Metal Chess Pieces, Luxury Storage Chess Board, for All Ages, Ideal for Father, (Black)

This board is a gorgeous piece of craftsmanship. I enjoy woodworking myself, and this is well made. Drawer slides easily and metal pieces are heavy with felt pads; you can tell this has been crafted by hand (any wood worker will tell you). The smell of fresh wood stain and urethane will fade quickly (for those unfamiliar with it and/or handmade wood products.. I personally love it, and it displays the quality of the work and protective coats). Smooth wood finish and nice use of the different grains. Please sell other handmade products like jewelry boxes, puzzle boxes with hidden drawers, etc. Making this a family heirloom to pass down. I personally prefer the drawer to the latch version as the latch version will need extra care/maintenance over years for alignment. If it scratches over time from use, this can be refinished to look good as new, which is the benefit of using solid wood pieces. This is the purple board - very glad it is not too purple, as it reminds me of nacre. Craftsmanship like this is easily worth the price, especially when you factor in the ability to refinish it overtime.

The media could not be loaded. Such a beautiful creation. It is every bit as stunning in real life. It's a work of art all by itself. Large, 15 inch, just as advertised. Each piece fits snugly into its foam cut out, so you could transport the whole thing easily without the pieces clicking together. You'd want to grip around the drawer side though; if you tipped it from the wrong side, the entire drawer could slip and fall clear out. The drawer glides smoothly, and I love the metal handles. I thought it would be two separate drawers, but in fact it is one long one that can slide completely out on either side.It arrived quickly, and packaged very well.Pieces are heavy, and pretty large, metal, with felt underneath so they glide across the board silently. 100% satisfied with this purchase. It feels like a family heirloom from an ancient mansion.

Excellent handmade beautiful Built toLast. Advertisement is correct what a gift for my grandsons.

Got this to play chess with my daughter. Beautiful set and peices. All comes packaged so well. The board alone is breathtaking but the peices are also beautiful. Only downside is the wash used on the peices is very different on each peice, not worth any less stars

Quality is beautiful. Very stunning board and figures and well made. The delivery box was a little banged up so I was worried it would be damaged, but it survived.

Beautiful Chess set. All pieces are very detailed. High quality.

This exceeded expectations and was a shockingly wonderful surprise to my wife. The smell of lacquer after unpackaging and setting up was a refreshing reminder that this is a relatively freshly made item. Friends and family seem convinced I couldn’t have found such an extravagant item on Amazon. Shipping says “Turkey” so I simply say that’s where I got it while relaying that it’s handmade. It’s beautiful, totally high quality, and seems to defy its cost of ownership. Highly recommend 💯 Stands out in any environment as seemingly grander quality than the cost would suggest.

We wanted a memorable giftt for our grandson's 16th birthday.This chess set fit the bill.The inlay work is beautiful.The chess pieces are a nice weight.The storage drawer holds the pieces tightly.Perfect.
