Manopoulos Greek Archers Chess Set Turquoise/Bronze – Large – can be Engraved or Personalised

Description

Face your opponent over this statement Greek Archers Chess Set on a bronze finish, brass edged board from Manopoulos. This eye-catching set is so beautifully realised, you’ll want to display it even when it’s not in play.  Drawing inspiration from the legends of the Greek Archers, defenders of the fortress walls of the city during the wars of ancient Greece. Their ferocity is symbolised by the aggressive stance of the Archer Pawn and the Knight. The posture of the King and Queen indicates their unquestionable leadership, and the bishop reveals his consideration for the imminent battle. Finally, the Castle is a reproduction of a pillar, the basic symbol of the architectural style during that period. These highly intricate pieces have an almost sculptural feel. All poised for a dramatic battle upon the handcrafted, expertly lacquered and finished, stylised chessboard.  Complemented by a dark stain wood veneer storage case, with a single gold tone, branded clasp. Game night never looked so good.   Add personalised engraving to a brass plate on the case for a truly unique gift.   Product Details:    Dimensions of the Board: 44 x 44 cm     Weight of set: 8 Kg     Chessboard: Brass    Chessmen: Zinc Alloy 5 in a blue/brown colourway    Wooden case: Laminated wood
