Colombian Chess Board
by
House of Chess
This Colombian ultra-luxury set is the product of careful attention to detail by master artisans, imported from India. Each piece is beautifully handcrafted, triple hand-weighted, buff polished to perfection and fitted with a thick green felt base. The result is a seamlessly designed set. The pieces have been weighted through the most advanced weighting system technique available on the market, allowing the same level of weighting with a minimum amount of materials and therefore eliminating the possibility of cracks. The dark pieces are made from Ebony wood and the light pieces from Boxwood.
About House of Chess
House of Chess began as a fun hobby between two friends, Elzanne and Estelle, who met in the summer of 2011 and were bonded by their children’s love of chess. They travelled together, meeting and consulting with the world’s most famous chess suppliers & shops.
Through these experiences they identified the world’s top chess producers in India, Greece, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, China, Spain, the USA, Poland, the UK and many more countries.
Their collaborative strategy quickly set them apart, and they soon became the leading chess supplier in the Southern Hemisphere. By winter 2018, House of Chess established a retail shop in Johannesburg, South Africa, allowing customers to explore a vast range of chess sets, accessories and other games.
Though Estelle has moved on to pursue new endeavours, her impact on the company’s journey remains invaluable. She made significant contributions to the development of the business, and we are grateful for her years of commitment and dedication.
Today, Elzanne continues carrying forward their shared vision with an outstanding team of dedicated and knowledgeable staff.
Although we import chess equipment from around the world, supporting local businesses in South Africa is at the heart of what we do. We are dedicated to continuously developing and offering locally manufactured products.
Our success is built on the range, quality and pricing of our products and our special approach to our customers and suppliers.
Our mission is to increase your enjoyment, passion and understanding of chess because it offers a wide range of benefits for the mind and personal development.
We invite you to explore our extensive collection of superb chess sets, accessories and board games, online or in-store.
