Battlement walls, corner turrets with bronze cannons standing on them, arched niches cut into the base with carved sentinels inside — all of it hand-worked in beech and walnut, with the playing field inlaid in walnut and maple across the top. Fifteen kilos. Before anyone thinks about the game, this is a piece of sculpture that happens to be fully playable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen the figural army goes out on it, 32 hand-carved pieces facing each other across a proper 23.6\" \/ 60 cm field, and the whole thing makes sense: a medieval battle set on a medieval building. Two ornate drawers pull out of the fortress base on antique-finish brass handles and take the entire set, which is what makes this a genuine chess set with drawers rather than a display piece you have to find a box for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCastle-base chess board with an inlaid walnut and maple playing surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 hand-carved figural chess pieces, 16 light and 16 dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze cannons on each corner turret and carved sentinels in the arches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo built-in storage drawers with antique brass handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoard: 23.6 x 23.6 x 4.3\" \/ 60 x 60 x 11 cm, plus the sculpted castle base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: solid beech and walnut with maple inlay and bronze cannon detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 15 kg \/ 33.1 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEntirely handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCannons, turrets and carved sentinels — sculpture, not applied decoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA fully playable 23.6\" \/ 60 cm field beneath all of it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA chess board with drawers: two hidden drawers hold the whole figural army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery turret, arch and figure carved by hand, so no two fortresses match\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift Worth Giving\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carving on one of these takes weeks, and the wood grain decides the rest — which means the one that arrives is genuinely the only one of its kind.
