Handmade chess set from the Greco-Roman period - gold and bronze chess pieces with a brown board

The luxury Greek brand Constatntions Manopoulos was established over four decades ago in 1970!

The company's name is derived from George Manopoulos, who created a new chess fashion by combining wood with metal in the creation of an innovative backgammon.

The Manopoulos brand is recognized worldwide for its rare manufacturing system of phenomenal and unique sets of traditional strategic games such as chess and backgammon.

The brand's main ambition is the highest quality materials and handcrafted decoration, ensuring that their products will serve you faithfully for a very long time, maintaining their pristine condition and appearance!

For chess production, they use a zinc alloy casting, which is then hand-painted and lacquered, while traditional Greek chessboards are made from the finest quality woods, including walnut, mahogany, olive, and oak.

It is thanks to the diligent and meticulous handiwork that their products are so intricately decorated and extraordinarily beautiful.

Manopoulos products are not just games; they are also exclusive decorations.

Constatntions Manopoulos continues the work of George Manopoulos and does not cease in the search for fresh designs.

Manopoulos offers beautiful chess sets - pieces, chessboards, storage containers for chess pieces, and other strategic games, such as backgammon.

Currently, MANOPOULOS is a globally popular modern establishment producing chess and backgammon in an avant-garde and luxurious style!

What should you pay attention to when buying chess?

Experienced players recommend purchasing wooden chess sets because the great advantage of wood is its durability. Furthermore, when choosing chess pieces, pay attention to their bases - the best ones have fabric. This ensures that your board will not be damaged during moves.

Is it worth teaching children to play chess?

Learning to play chess positively influences the comprehensive development of a child - it enhances memory, abstract and logical thinking skills, and teaches determination and patience.

The mental and character traits developed in this way manifest not only at the chessboard. The effects are visible even in a child's early education. This is evident in the ability to concentrate on a problem, ease of remembering details, or speed in reaching the correct solution to a problem. Thus, we see that playing chess is not only an intellectual game but also a significant investment in our children's minds.
