This unique and exotic chess set is hand carved in the Carpathian mountains of Europe, and makes an excellent light weight travel chess set. Players on the go will appreciate the Kasbah as a quality folding chess set. Notice the intricate detail given to the crowns of the King and Queen, and their airy elegance. The Bishops and Rooks have been re-envisioned to provide players with a more tapered feel. In addition, the pieces of this travel set have been designed with wide bases to make them more difficult to jostle or tip. This fine chess set includes a wood chess board which doubles as a storage container with ornate clasp for the chess pieces - just turn the double compartment carrying case over to reveal a chess board with algebraic coordinates! The King is a worthy 2.35inches tall and is, like each of the chess pieces, made from Beech wood - known for its fine grain and excellent finish. The chess board is 11.25" x 11.25" and decorated on the borders for display at home or in the office. The interior of the storage compartment is lined with green felt which cushions the chess pieces for easy and safe transport. Of course the bottom of the pieces are felt-covered to protect the chess board from scratches. This chess set is wonderfully detailed, unique and decorative - small enough for travel and large enough for comfortable playing. You will enjoy many years of chess play on this hand crafted wooden chess set. King Height: 2.35" Square Size: 1" Dimensions, Case Folded: 12" x 6" x 1.75"
