Details

Gray tones lend an inviting air of mystery to this handcrafted chess set. The game employs marble's power to intensify the mental battles to be waged. The combatants line up, patiently prepared for the heated climax when one of the competitors first announces, "Check." The Sierra Family infuses a classic game with a touch of Mexican artistry.

As each piece is sculpted individually with natural stones, there may exist slight variations in the color and grain pattern of the stone. The dimension of the pieces may also vary slightly, up to 1 in (2.5 cm).

“Beautiful bowl.”

I have been looking for an onyx bowl for awhile, it had to be the right size. Then I found this, it is perfect. The shape, the weight, everything, I love it !!

“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!

“I need to purchase the rules for this game of dominoes so I can get the most out of this set.”

This is one of my first purchases from the Sierra Family. I have several of their works of art now and will probably purchase more as time goes on. I recommend the Sierra Family to anyone that values beauty.
