“BEAUTIFUL!”

This chess set is made of rich onyx. It gleams. I have it on my grand piano where it highlights the deep black color of the Steinway wood.

“If you like black onyx this should sate that desire.”

This set is much bigger than the green marble and onyx set I purchased from the Sierra Family some time ago. I love it!
