Feudal Japan, at the hour when warlords fight over the provinces. Lacquered armour, sheathed swords, cavalry at full gallop: every piece carries the warrior's code.
The figures
King and Queen — the lord and his lady, in ceremonial armour
Knight — samurai on a rearing horse
Rook — multi-tiered fortress, stacked roofs
Pawn — armoured foot soldier, ready for combat
What the pack contains
The board and the 32 pieces, ready to play. Sold separately, the board and the set come to €104 — the pack saves you €15.
Board — 28 × 28 × 1 cm, 32 mm squares, black and white
Pieces — 32 pieces, 16 light and 16 dark
Piece height — from 3.8 cm for the pawn to 5.3 cm for the king
Lead time — ships within 3 to 5 working days
Finishes
Black & White — the sobriety of ink on rice paper. Aged Gold & Silver — the gleam of parade armour.
The finish applies to the pieces: the board is black and white in both cases. The felt under the bases is available as an option.
No two sets are ever identical
The paint is applied by hand, piece by piece. Your set won't look exactly like the photos — it will look like itself.
A compact format, and we own it
Our squares are 32 mm while the tournament standard is 50-57 mm. This is an object designed for a coffee table or a shelf, not for a club.
Product information
Decorative and collectible object, intended for collectors aged 14 and over. Small parts — keep out of reach of young children, choking hazard. Some figurines have pointed ends: handle with care.

Size, and why it is compact
+
Our squares are 32 mm while the tournament standard is 50-57 mm. This is an object made for a coffee table or a shelf, not for a club — we'd rather say so before you order.
The board measures 28.2 × 28.2 × 8 cm. If you buy the pieces alone, measure one square of your board: it's the only real constraint.
Care
+
Dry microfibre cloth, nothing else. No water, no alcohol, no solvent: they attack the paint.
Avoid prolonged direct sunlight and the proximity of a radiator. Place the board on a flat, stable surface.
Returns and warranties
+
You have 14 days after receipt to change your mind, without having to justify yourself. Let us know, send the set back within 14 days, and we refund you within 14 days, standard shipping included. Return shipping costs are on us.
The legal guarantee of conformity (2 years from delivery) and the guarantee against hidden defects (2 years from discovery of the defect) also apply.
We hold no stock. What you order is made for you, by hand, in France — here is what happens between your order and your table.

Frequently asked questions
Can I really play with it, or is it decorative?
Both. It's a complete, playable chess set, but sized for the display cabinet rather than the club: our squares are 32 mm while the tournament standard is 50-57 mm. If you are looking for a competition set, this is not the one.
Will my pieces fit my board?
Our pieces are sized for 32 mm squares. Measure a square on your board before ordering pieces only: it's the only real constraint.
How long before I receive my order?
Every set is made to order, with no stock. Allow 3 to 5 working days in the workshop, then 2 to 4 days of transport. That's 5 to 9 working days in total.
What if I don't like the set?
You have 14 days after receipt to change your mind, without having to justify yourself. Return shipping costs are on us.
Is it suitable for children?
No. These are decorative and collectible objects, intended for collectors aged 14 and over. Small parts, choking hazard: keep out of reach of young children.
