Warm brown Emperador against cream, with a pale border drawn round the outside — no strong colour anywhere, just stone doing what stone does. The veining wanders differently across every board, which means the one you receive has a pattern nobody else owns and nobody could reproduce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFifteen kilos of it, 15.7\" \/ 40 cm across, with 32 hand-cast bronze pieces standing on their own marble bases. What a stone chess set gives you that wood cannot is stillness: nothing warms up, nothing shifts, nothing creaks as the room changes temperature. You put a piece down and it stays exactly there, and a long game feels different played on a surface that refuses to move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCream and brown marble chess board with brass coordinate markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 hand-cast bronze chess pieces on marble bases, 16 light and 16 dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWooden storage box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoard: 15.7 x 15.7\" \/ 40 x 40 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 15 kg \/ 33.1 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: natural marble board, cast bronze pieces on marble bases, brass detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: polished marble with brass coordinate markers\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\u003eWarm neutral stone that suits any room without competing with it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural Emperador veining — unrepeatable on any other board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze pieces on their own marble bases, light against dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 kg of solid marble: absolutely still, every game\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStone Rather Than Wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSixty-four squares, each cut from natural stone and polished to meet its neighbours dead flat. There is no filler, no correction and no second attempt — a chipped corner means the square is scrapped.
