Its sturdy, rounded forms have no sharp edges or fragile carving, so the pieces are a pleasure to handle in long games, while the natural grain of genuine ebony gives collectors something to admire up close. Paired with an ebony and maple board and a felt-lined box, it is a complete set for players, history-minded collectors and gift-givers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e34 weighted Lessing Staunton chess pieces in ebony and boxwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e21 in x 21 in (53 cm x 53 cm) ebony and maple chessboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBook-style leatherette storage box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChess Pieces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with the originals, the pieces are traditionally weighted with lead in the base.
