Although it is believed that the chessmen are Norwegian, they were not discovered for many hundreds of years. They were discovered by chance near the Isle of Lewis in Scotland, 1831. Many people believe that the pieces were intended for another game, and there is much debate about the origins. These pieces, despite all the debates and opinions, are now accepted in their traditional sense of chessmen.

The original pieces are still in the United Kingdom and can be seen by all. This reproduction gives you the chance to have a piece in history and play chess with them in their presence.

This stunning Italian-made chessboard is the perfect place to host your army. This chessboard has a beautiful Makassar maple and ebony swatch. It is solid and stable, so it will not warp or split. It will last generations.
