The 4-inch Staunton Leningrad Acacia Chess Pieces are a striking full-sized tournament chess set, thoughtfully crafted for discerning players and collectors. With a 4-inch king, this set is well-suited for competitive play while also serving as a distinguished display piece. Each chessman is hand-carved from rich acacia wood, blending timeless design with enduring quality.
Every piece is fitted with a soft felt base to protect your board from scuffs and scratches, ensuring a smooth and elegant playing experience. The set includes a full complement of 34 pieces—two extra queens for enhanced strategic flexibility.
This exceptional set is paired with a stunning 21-inch chessboard—an exquisite centrepiece crafted from premium ebony golden rosewood (acacia) and boxwood. The dark, richly figured rosewood squares are beautifully offset by light, creamy boxwood tones, creating a refined and elegant playing surface. Each 2.25-inch square is precision inlaid, and the polished finish enhances the natural grain variations, lending each board a unique character. A full baize lining on the underside and a gracefully bevelled frame complete the board’s sophisticated aesthetic.
Also included is a practical vinyl chess box, ideal for storing and protecting your pieces when not in use.
