MEGHDOOT Wooden Chess Set with Rosewood & Mother of Pearl Beech Board | 42mm Squares

This exquisite wooden chess set combines Meghdoot chess pieces with a Rosewood and Mother of Pearl Beech Chess Board from Helena Wood Art. The pieces are inspired by Howard Staunton, who introduced and promoted the standardised Staunton design at the 1851 London International Chess Tournament.

Handcrafted in India, each piece is fitted with a felt base for smooth play and to protect your chessboard.

The chess board showcases the craftsmanship of Helena Wood Art’s master Turkish artisans, established in 1987. Handcrafted in Turkey, the wooden chess board features the traditional art of mother-of-pearl inlay and wood mosaic - techniques preserved through generations of skilled artisans.

Built on a solid beech wood base, the chess board offers strength and long-term durability. The playing squares are inlaid with genuine luminous mother-of-pearl and rosewood veneer, complemented by a refined diamond-pattern mosaic border composed of contrasting light and dark natural woods.

The result is a sophisticated playing surface designed for serious play while remaining equally suited to elegant display.
