Wooden Intarsia Chess Set

Limited Edition. For over five centuries, the skilled artisans of Sorrento, Italy have created some of the finest wood inlay in all the world, called ”Intarsia” in Italian. So detailed, their designs can at times appear to be painted with a fine brush, yet each is painstakingly pieced together from hundreds of pieces of exotic woods. The high-gloss lacquer finish provides additional richness and depth to the designs and ensures that each heirloom game box will be treasured by future generations. As exquisitely finished inside as out. A brass key locks the compartmented storage area under the hinged lid. Each chess piece is made of solid wood and has a felt bottom. Includes assorted chess pieces. Handmade by Giuseppe of Sorrento. 17.75” x 13.75”.
