Carved Chess Sets

These aren't boards you hide away. Every carved chess set in this collection features deep wood relief carving by Hrachya Ohanyan — Armenian ornamental patterns, eternity motifs, carpet designs, and pomegranate vine work, all cut into solid wood entirely by hand.

Each piece takes significantly longer to make than a standard board because the carving is done by hand from start to finish. The result is a chess set that doubles as a statement piece — something worth displaying even when the pieces are put away.

Available in sizes from 30 cm to 60 cm. Free worldwide shipping on every order.

Frequently asked questions

Is the carving really done by hand?

Yes — every ornamental pattern, eternity motif, carpet design, and pomegranate vine is cut into solid wood entirely by hand by Hrachya Ohanyan. That is why each carved set takes significantly longer to make than a standard board.
What sizes are available?

Carved chess sets range from 30 cm to 60 cm. Exact dimensions are listed on each product page.
Can I play on a carved board or is it decorative?

Both. The playing surface is fully functional, and the carved detail makes it a statement piece worth displaying even when the pieces are put away.
Is shipping really free worldwide?

Yes — free worldwide shipping on every order in this collection.
