Immerse yourself in the legendary world of ancient Greece with the Handcrafted Greek Mythology Chess Set. This beautifully designed set features green and gold chessmen paired with a 36 x 36 cm bronze chessboard, making it a luxurious addition to any game room.

The Legend

A glorious city was the bone of contention between two powerful gods. The God of the Sea, Poseidon, and the Goddess of Wisdom, Athena, each wanted the city to be named after themselves. The divine conflict was fierce, so Zeus declared that each god had to make an offer to the citizens. Poseidon lifted his trident and struck the rock of the Acropolis, where sea water burst out. “It will warn you of upcoming storms. Your city will conquer the seas,” he said. Athena knelt and touched the ground, where an olive tree started to grow. “For food, oil, wood, and light. Your city will become the symbol of civilization.” Despite Poseidon's rage, Athena’s gift was preferred, and ever since, the city is called Athens.

The Chessmen

Each piece in this set is a masterpiece, reflecting the artistry of Greek sculptors who recreated the divine conflict through their work:

  • King: A replica of the famous statue “Poseidon of Melos” (2nd cent. B.C.).
  • Queen: Represents the glorious “Athena Promachos” (450 B.C., Acropolis Museum).
  • Bishop: Inspired by a bronze Hellenistic statue.
  • Knight: Part of the marble facade of the Parthenon sculpted by Pheidias.
  • Castle (Rook): A reproduction of an admirable Attic stele devoted to young Aristion who died in battle.
  • Pawn: A bronze statue of a fully armed warrior from 500 B.C.

Key Features:

  • Handcrafted Excellence: Each piece is meticulously crafted, reflecting the skill and dedication of artisan board game makers.
  • Green/Gold Chessmen: A unique and elegant color combination that enhances the aesthetic appeal of the set.
  • Bronze Chessboard: Measuring 36 x 36 cm, the chessboard adds a touch of luxury to any game room.
  • Historical Significance: Every piece represents a significant figure or element from Greek mythology, making this set a true collectible.
  • Perfect for Gifting: Ideal for luxury gifts for gamers, history enthusiasts, or collectors of high-quality chess sets.
  • Artisan Craftsmanship: A testament to the skill and dedication of artisan board game makers.
