A completely unique historical chess set from the Italian craftsmen at Italfama. Among the most fascinating periods in history is that of the many crusades in the Holy Land of the Middle East. During this long and brutal time, a secretive and enigmatic order of holy knights was born – The Knights Templar. One of the longest-surviving secret orders of all time, The Knights Templar were formed to protect Christian pilgrims who made the holy journey to Jerusalem. They are also rumoured to have located and retrieved the Holy Grail.
The enormously skilled chess craftsmen at Italfama in Florence, Italy have created both this amazing set of Templar Crusader Knights, and a simply stunning resin chess board with amazing border detailing.
We have paired these two products together to create an set of incredible quality.
