Large Greek Mythology Chess Set – Chess Board with Storage Compartment

This large chess set on the theme of Greek mythology is perfect for those who love history and strategy.

The chess board measures 48 x 48 cm, with an elegantly understated metal playing surface, framed by a laminated wooden edge that brings a sophisticated and durable touch. Beneath the board, a clever storage space allows you to keep the chess pieces safely stored away.

The large chess pieces are made from gold- and silver-toned metal, with the king piece standing up to 10.5 cm tall.

Each piece is carefully inspired by iconic figures from ancient Greek art, creating a truly unique and culturally rich set. The king is a replica of the famous “Poseidon of Melos” statue, while the queen represents the majestic “Athena Promachos”. The bishop draws inspiration from a Hellenistic bronze statue, and the knight is taken from the Parthenon frieze, sculpted by Phidias. The rook, meanwhile, is a reproduction of an Attic stele dedicated to the young Aristion, who died in battle. Finally, the pawn represents a fully armed bronze warrior.

This chess set thus combines the grandeur of Greek mythological figures with the nobility of its materials, creating a piece as beautiful to look at as it is to play with.
