11-inch Simple Book-Style Folding Chess Case

Book-style game sets were invented a few hundred years ago, when backgammon was prohibited because of gambling, and people made them look like folding books on the shelf to avoid being caught. This concept is applied to this simple but well-made chess set. Chess pieces are stored in the cavity of the folding chess board when it is folded. The squares of the playing surface is made of individual wood veneers and precisely aligned. This is a simple, conservative, and highly practical chess set.
