A Hayneedle exclusive, the WorldWise Imports Ebony and Boxwood Ball-Carved Chessmen set features hand-carved magic ball (a ball within a ball) chessmen. These pieces are triple-weighted, felted, and delivered in a teak hinged box.

The king of this beautiful set of chessmen stands 5.5 inches tall with a base diameter of 1.7 inches. Made in India. Teak box dimensions: 24L x 11W x 3H inches.
