This fantastic marble chess set is another stunning product from Italian producer Italfama. It's been hand-crafted in Italy by this established company, and the result is as you would expect. The pieces have been expertly turned from high-grade marble and finished and polished to a very high standard.

The board has been created from individual pieces of marble and polished to a lovely, even finish. One of the key things to remember about this set is that every one is unique. Marble is a natural material, and as such, the swirling patterns and textures are unique to every set. In some marble sets, we sometimes see so much variation in the material that the black and white pieces become less distinguishable than they should be, which is, of course, no good for serious chess players. Italfama has got things perfect in this respect and has ensured a lovely contrast between the two sides. Clean whites and greys on one side and swirling natural creams and browns on the other.

A lovely quality, heavy and very well-finished set that comes directly from a fine Italian maker. This marble set is stocked in our UK warehouse and ready for immediate dispatch. If you are looking for fine craftsmanship, eye-catching style and some good wow factor, then this set should certainly be on your short list.
