Vintage Stunning Mother of Pearl Inlaid, Lacquer and Ivory Chess Set.

Description

Vintage lacquered and mother of pearl inlay hinged chess board with 32 ivory playing pieces.

The folding lacquered board is inlaid with mother of pearl squares in the design of birds, boats, landscapes or flowers. There is also mother of pearl line inlay to the border. The board has a moulded edge.

The playing pieces are all carved ivory, 16 being natural colur and the other 16 dyed. They store inside the board when it is folded and latched in the closed position. To play, the board is opened out flat, and is then ready to use.

Size-board is 15 inches square; the king stands 3 inches high, the queen stands 2.5 inches high.

A very lovely complete chess set to use and display, making it both practical and a beautiful and decorative accessory.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
