               Amritsar Ivory Works was established in 1962 under the leadership of Shiv Dyal Sharma, initially producing ivory lamps, statues, and chess sets from ivory. Several years later, the company was inherited by Mr. Rajesh Sharma (son of Mr. Shiv Dyal Sharma), a sportsman and national volleyball player. With his understanding and enthusiasm for creating sporting products, he began designing revolutionary wooden chess models after the complete ban on ivory use in his youth, selling them to many exporters in India. After many challenges, Mr. Rajesh Sharma connected with Mr. Dennis Peterson, owner of Legend Products in the USA, in 1991-1992. Mr. Dennis was greatly impressed by the quality of craftsmanship of Amritsar Ivory Works under Mr. Sharma’s leadership. Subsequently, both companies launched the Pioneer Series and Monarch Series chess sets, which became hugely successful due to the strong sales of sets made from Boxwood/Ebony, marking a significant milestone in the international chess market.

               In 1994, Rajesh Sharma and Frank A. Camarrata, Jr. (from Dom Staunton, USA) collaborated to revolutionize the history of the chess industry once again. Frank A. Camarrata was deeply contemplative when dealing with numerous failed attempts to design Collector series chess sets by various manufacturers and suppliers. However, when Rajesh Sharma showcased his skills on a collector’s chess scene, Frank Camarrata was mesmerized by the excellence of the designs created by Rajesh Sharma (Amritsar Ivory Works). He immediately began working mainly with Amritsar Ivory Works. Rajesh Sharma introduced and crafted hundreds of original chess designs in various sizes and wood combinations, such as Sultan Series, Sheffield Series, Empire Series, Centurion Series, Classic Staunton, Morphy Series, Player Series, Professional Series, and many others.

               Due to health issues, Mr. Rajesh Sharma retired from active business in 2008. Now, his two sons, Gaurav Sharma and Rishi Sharma (the third generation), have taken over all business affairs, including designing and creating the finest craftsmanship in the best-quality chess products. They introduced several collections such as The Alexander Stallion, Victoria Castle Series, The Kohinoor Series, Saint John Series, Cambridge Series, and many more under the brand The Chess Empire. The Chess Empire also produces all reproductions for Jaques of London, a well-established and globally recognized chess company in the industry.
