The theme for this beautiful chess set is inspired by the Greek-Roman period. Greek sculptors loved to recreate this divine conflict through their art. This period was characterized by fierce local as well as international wars. The aggressiveness of the Pawn and the Knight fully represent the ferocity of these wars. The posture of the King and Queen indicates their unquestionable leadership. The Bishop reveals his consideration for the movements of the imminent battle. Finally, the Castle is a reproduction of a pillar which characterized the architectural style during that period.

Handmade in Greece
