The other pieces have graceful curves and shapes that you expect to see on an old Staunton design. The king is 3.75 tall with a 1.625 wide base and features a traditional formee cross. The pieces are triple weighted to produce a low center of gravity and exceptional stability on the chess board.

African padauk is one of the most colorful of the exotic woods and is often referred to as blood rosewood.

The bird's eye maple is gorgeous and its' rich golden color is perfect for contrasting with either the ebony or padauk. The black inlay border and molded edge add an elegant touch to the board and enhances the colors of the padauk and bird's eye maple even more. This heirloom quality chess set made from exotic woods is not only a good investment for these times but it will make every chess game all the more enjoyable and is sure to become one of your treasured possessions that will be handed down for generations.
