The History of Chess
Chess is a game known worldwide, across every culture and civilization. It originated around the 5th-6th century AD, most likely in India, although there are hypotheses about its origins in China. It is generally accepted that the creators of today's rules were Persians. The word 'chess' is derived from the Persian word for 'king,' and phonetically, 'checkmate' means 'the king is surrounded' in Persian.
Chess made from the highest quality materials
Handcrafted chess pieces are a specialty of the Italian manufacturer Italfama. This family business has been creating chess sets for the most demanding players and collectors for several decades. During this time, it has won the hearts of many chess enthusiasts around the world.
Italfama is known for using only high-quality materials:
- beech wood, boxwood known for its stunning grain, rosewood, bronze, alabaster, and even onyx, silver, and gold!
- Artists at Italfama skillfully combine these materials to create chess accessories that can be passed down through generations.
- Hand-painted resin chess sets will beautifully complement Italfama's wooden boards.
The growing interest in chess, which for centuries was an elitist game, and the emergence of international competitions, have necessitated standardization or at least similarity in the appearance of chess pieces. The conventions established at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries now have variations in the form of pieces made from unusual materials. Additionally, Italfama sometimes breaks conventions—combining tradition with modernity in sets styled in French, Oriental, or English styles.
A jewel among these chess collections are sets inspired by history and fairy tales.
