Metal and wooden chess - Romans and Barbarians

An incredible chess set inspired by history. Italfama is renowned in the professional chess market not only for using high-quality materials but primarily for its impeccable sense of style and references to famous battles, historical eras, and legendary figures that have made their mark on history.

In ancient Rome, barbarians were not simply those who lacked knowledge of European culture, but anyone who did not belong to the Greco-Roman civilization. The term 'barbarian' referred to someone who used incomprehensible sounds. The Romans called everyone from the Huns, Celts, Scythians, to Vandals and Franks, barbarians.

We offer you an excellent metal and wood chess set - Romans and Barbarians. Chess referencing different historical periods, stylized chess based on historical figures, recalling famous battles — this is a specialty of the prestigious Italian manufacturer Italfama.

We invite you to explore our complete range of luxury and professional chess sets — including tables, game boards, checkers boards, and figurines in various styles and materials. Italfama emphasizes rich forms and materials. Therefore, every chess enthusiast will find something for themselves in its collections.

The growing interest in chess, which for centuries was an elitist game, and the emergence of international competitions, required 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 unconventional materials. Additionally, Italfama sometimes breaks conventions — in sets styled in French, Oriental, or English styles, they manage to combine tradition with modernity.

They create entirely unconventional sets! All of them impress with their detailed decorations, solid craftsmanship, and tasteful design, even in richly decorated sets.
