A striking chess set featuring large, beautifully weighted Leningrad ebonised boxwood pieces paired with a high-quality veneer chessboard.

The Leningrad Chessmen series comprises sets of quality large pieces available in ebonised boxwood, acacia and anjan. To create the look of these black pieces, a set of natural boxwood goes through a treatment called ebonisation. It's a long and painstaking procedure, but the results are really worth the wait to create the appearance of ebony, without its price tag.

With their height and stature, all the pieces are regal and elegant in their appearance. These large pieces are perfectly weighted for their size and naturally polished with plush flocked bases in green.

We have chosen a lovely chessboard with fine quality inlays to accommodate the Leningrad ebonised chessmen.

The chessboard has a substantial weight with a solid feel, and is very well finished, making it perfect to complement these pieces.
