This superb natural stone and marble chess set is captivating for its deep colours and unique veining. It combines an elegant black marble with a brown-grey stone featuring magnificent natural patterns.
The chess board measures 30 × 30 cm, with a thickness of 1.5 cm. Its dimensions offer a comfortable playing surface while remaining an easy size to place in a living room, study or library.
The 32 pieces follow the traditional chess shapes. The dark pieces are crafted from polished black stone, while the opposing pieces display naturally marbled brown, grey and taupe hues.
The king stands 7.5 cm tall. These proportions ensure a comfortable grip and pair perfectly with the 30 cm board.
As each piece is shaped from a natural material, colours, veining and patterns may vary slightly. These differences make every set truly unique.
This chess set is supplied in an elegant, rigid grey storage box designed to hold the board and the 32 pieces. Its fabric-lined interior features individual, soft compartments that separate the pieces and reduce the risk of knocks during storage.
The board sits in the upper part of the box, so that the whole set can be kept together in one place. Metal clasps secure the closure, while the handle makes it easy to carry.
This box provides suitable protection for this natural stone set while offering a particularly refined presentation.
The contrast between the deep black and the natural brown-grey tones gives this set an understated, refined aesthetic. Placed in a living room, this chess set also becomes a genuine decorative piece.
It will appeal to players, collectors and lovers of beautiful objects alike. Presented in its storage box, it also makes an excellent gift idea.
Choosing the right board size
A beautiful chess set rests on a simple balance: pieces well proportioned to the size of the squares. To choose a harmonious board, the most reliable guide is the diameter of the king's base.
Key guideline: ideally, the king's base takes up about 75% of the square.

A board that is too small can hamper moves and make the set look cluttered. À l’inverse, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole. The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.
