This chess set is fit for the blue blood. We are talking about the Queen’s Silver Jubilee chess set which was restored in 1977. If it helps to know the set also won the esteemed Design Council Awards. And currently the Silver Jubilee Chessmen are balanced to the US chess Federation playing weight. Bearing the London Hallmark, the seat has been made in two suede-lined leather book boxes with hand inlaid Dauphin leather trim. And typical to all Geoffrey Parker luxury games, this one too comes in a wide array of colors. We are told that there are two extra Queens for the serious player.
All pieces have been crafted in sterling silver gilt only to be gold plated later keeping a consistency of 5 microns. We are told that you can also get pieces completely made in 18 carat gold.
The Silver Jubilee Chess set has a retail price range between $53,735-$62,450. For those who seek everything in diamond, the Royal Diamond Chess Set might interest. There is also a very cool medieval theme inspired set too.
