Herman Ohme Series of Chessmen are a faithful reproduction to the original design cast in black and white plastic. They have a modern profile and look beautiful when paired when with one of our minimalist chess boards. The pieces have been well weighted with green felted bases.
Graded Boxwood has been used to carefully handcraft these set of chessmen. Black side of the chess pieces has been beautifully ebonised and the chessmen have been hand polished on a buffing wheel
These chessmen are paired with our border less golden rosewood chessboard of 50mm square, making for an excellent combination to keep as display and earn the appreciation of your opponents
