Luxury Georgian Chess Set with Coat of Arms

Luxury Georgian Chess Set with Coat of Arms

Georgia put a knight at the center of its coat of arms — St. George at full charge — and this Georgian chess set puts that knight at the center of the game of knights. The arms are hand-carved in crisp detail across the folding board: the saint, the dragon beneath, the crown above, all in warm carved beech.

Chess on the outside for the long, single-combat evenings; a complete nardi field inside, because no Georgian table stops at one game. At 15.7" / 40 cm and 6.6 lb / 3 kg — with a built-in carry handle — it travels to every supra worth attending. A handmade chess backgammon set with a saint on guard and luck on call.
