Introducing the Charcoal Black Helena Ebony Chess Set, a masterpiece crafted with intricate wood inlays inspired by Turkish artists and Moorish influences, resulting in captivating geometric designs. This exceptional Ebony chess set is not only a perfect souvenir but also an ideal gift for a loved one or a valuable addition to any chess board collection. Each piece of this Ebony chess set is meticulously handcrafted with precision by highly skilled and experienced craftsmen, ensuring a stunning visual appeal and vibrant colours that truly stand out.

The Ebony chess set features the Zagreb Chess Pieces, known as the Zagreb 1959 Series, named after the historic world championship tournament held in Zagreb, Croatia, in 1959. These unique chess pieces distinguish themselves from traditional Staunton designs, particularly in the top portion of the king, queen, and bishop, which feature an opposition colour. The knight is intricately carved with visible strokes across its vertebrae, creating a dynamic and bowing appearance reminiscent of Russian chess piece designs.

Carefully crafted by skilled artisans in Amritsar, India, each piece of this Ebony chess set is carved from specific blocks of wood to ensure the utmost attention to detail and design accuracy. The Ebony chess set is complemented by an elegant ebony wood veneered chess piece storage box. This spacious storage box is designed to accommodate pieces of varying sizes, from as small as 3 inches to as large as 4 inches. It is thoughtfully padded and coated in black velvet felt, offering optimal protection to your cherished chess pieces.
