The "Fairy Tale" set is a rare example of carved chess, appealing not only to aesthetic taste, but also to cultural memory. In each character, from the gray—haired wizard to the hut on chicken legs, images of the Russian fairy—tale tradition come to life, which have become allegories of strategic confrontation. The set consists of figures made of an array of two rocks: acacia — for the light side, black walnut — for the dark side. The massive size gives each figure weight, but the figures are not additionally weighted, allowing you to maintain tactile lightness. High relief, carefully crafted features, a variety of shapes — each figure seems to carry a little drama.
The playing field is hand-assembled from maple and walnut veneer. White and dark cells are neatly combined in a single mosaic on the background of a noble oak board. The 56 by 56 cm size sets a comfortable playing space, and the large 65 by 65 mm cage provides excellent readability of the field even with large three-dimensional shapes. The alphanumeric and numeric indexing is neatly applied along the edge, emphasizing both functionality and the desire for classical precision. Hidden inside the board is a velvet base lined with deep blue velour, providing individual storage for each piece.
The set is aimed not just at chess fans, but also at connoisseurs of Russian mythopoetics and collectors of objects with artistic meaning. This is a game that has moved into the plane of symbolic storytelling, where strategy is combined with history. The set is delivered in a protective cardboard box, but in itself it is already a museum—level gift - exquisite, multi-layered, designed for those who are accustomed to think deeply and choose the best.
