The set and it's parts are finished very well and the inserts fit well with no sticking when you slide the chess piece tray. There is a ball-bearing midway through the insert edge to keep the insert in it's place, this operates smoothly and without any exertion needed to open or close. This comes with the German knight design and single queens as shown in the pictures.

It is supplied with a high quality thick black zippered vinyl carry bag. Most other vendors supply a cheap thin cloth velour green bag.
Please note. This set is made of golden rosewood and boxwood. Due to very strict export controls introduced as a result of the CITES treaty and proof of origin this wood cannot be exported from India without a government license. As a result most manufacturers are now using Acacia wood as a substitute which looks very similar. Once our stock is exhausted we will no longer be supplying this product in this format.
