A classic-style wood and metal chess set created by our Italian artisan who specialises in making chess sets
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.

Conversely, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole.
The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.
