    Description

    This is a Vintage Soapstone Hand Carved Chess Set
    in a Portable Storage Case with an Inlaid Stone Board.
    Maker and country of origin not marked anywhere and
    exact age unknown. However, from other sets I've seen,
    this set was probably made in India.
    The case is made of solid wood, Oak, I believe, and the bottom
    is a veneer. The top of the case has a stone inlaid chess
    board. Not sure what the stone is. It is very well made. The
    hinges are brass and the clasps, on the front, are steel. The
    inside is lined with padded cloth. The Case is 8" square and
    with the pieces inside, it weighs just over 2 Lb.
    The chess pieces are hand carved stone which I believe
    is Soapstone. No two pieces are exactly alike. The pieces
    vary in size. The Kings are about 1 3/4" tall, The Queens
    are about 1 1/2" tall, the rooks are 7/8" tall and the Pawns
    are just about 3/4" tall.
    Please see the Item Specifics for the Condition Details and look
    closely at all the photos and judge for yourself.
    Shipping Cost varies according to buyer's location and is calculated
    by the weight of the package. The displayed shipping cost, for this item,
    is based on a package weight of 3 Lbs.
