Hand-crafted in India’s most venerable workshop, this luxurious chess set is inspired by the contours of this elegant but shy creature. Timeless and elegant, the limited edition pieces are designed by renowned sculptor Avtarjeet Dhanjal and carved of precious heirloom woods. To protect against the many would-be imitators, all Natraja sets are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a book signed by the sculptor. One team is carved of English boxwood. The second team is carved of ebony. Ebony is the classic choice for chess purists. Its solid, dark hue allows serious gamers to keep their focus where it matters most: on strategy.
