A Legacy of Strategy
Chess traces its origins to 6th-century northwest India, where it began as chaturaṅga, symbolizing the four divisions of the military—infantry, cavalry, elephants, and chariots. As it spread across the globe via the Silk Road, the game evolved into the version we know today. The term "checkmate" comes from the Persian shāh māt, meaning "the king is helpless"—a fitting conclusion to a game of patience, foresight, and mastery.
This Marina and Black Marble Chess Set is ideal for both serious players and collectors seeking a display-worthy showpiece. With timeless materials and classic craftsmanship, it’s more than a game—it’s a legacy.
