The Shera Series Staunton Triple Weighted Chess Pieces V2.0 in Bud Rosewood / Boxwood - 4.5" King

The 1st-gen Shera series was the archetype of perfection in our luxury series. We've refined its elegance while keeping its iconic design. This stellar Staunton pattern set is crafted from bud rosewood and boxwood. The King stands at 4.5 inches with a 1.9-inch base. Dark pieces in rare bud rosewood make it a top choice for chess enthusiasts.

Weight: 2000 grams approx. (70.54 oz). Please note that the weight in the set is added manually so the final weight of the set can vary by plus or minus (±) 10%.

The opposing pieces are crafted from boxwood, the traditional choice for the white side. This wood is easy to work with and highlights fine details. The set includes free extra queens for effortless pawn promotion. Each piece is expertly carved, well-weighted for a satisfying hand-feel, and lands with a firm thud on the board. Featuring unique collar rings, intricate hand-carved details, and thick green felt for smooth movement, these pieces ensure premium playability. The knights showcase the finest craftsmanship from our skilled Indian artisans.

Craftsmanship: The knight’s carving is truly spectacular, with intricate details around the mane and nostrils. The design of the other pieces is equally impressive, making the set stand out. Meticulously handcrafted from the finest bud rosewood and hand-polished for a rich, lasting shine, each chess piece reflects superior artistry. Made in India with exquisite details, the quality and craftsmanship rival luxury sets sold for $1000+ by other retailers.

Uniformity of pieces: The shapes of turned pieces are guided by metal profiles and so all turned pieces are identical, especially the pawns. You can expect some variation where hand carving or cutting comes i.e. knights. 

Before dispatch, we apply a special polish that enhances reflection and makes smudge removal easy. These chess pieces have an elegant visual appeal, perfect for display on a cocktail table and practical play. The set features red and off-white pieces, complementing any red or black chessboard. A matching chessboard is available at our store for an additional cost.

Package Includes : 34 Chessmen(2 extra queens included). Chess board NOT included in this sale.
