There are plenty of chess sets out there that are good, but why get good when you can get breathtaking.  That's right, take one look at this medium sized chess set and you'll be at a loss for words.  This chess set is one of the nicest ones we have.  The base is made of wood with a black finish.  The red and maple wood chess board complement the storage compartment nicely with their rich colors and fine attention to detail.  What puts the cherry on top are the chess pieces that come with this set.  The pieces are metal with a good weight, giving you a much more powerful feeling when you play.  Board and pieces made in China in our own quality-controlled factory.  Lift the lid and store the chess pieces.  To protect the pieces and set, felt is lined on the bottom of each chess piece.  Comes in retail packaging.
