All of the Metal Chess sets in the Regency collection are comfortable in either this or the luxury section, thanks to the painstaking level of artisan manufacture. They show a clear aesthetic quality above standard sets, and their fundamental build quality means they keep that appearance over time.
In a time when many products are not built to last, our Italian-made metal chessmen are the counterexample. The Finnesburg and Dark Walnut Luxury Chess Set, for example, will serve a family for generations. This piece is hand made in Florence, Italy by our partners at Italfama. Expect to own these sets for life, and to enjoy the fine detail of their metal pieces.
The Regency Chess Company is proud to be UK stockists of the Italfama range of metal chess sets. We partnered with this storied Italian company because of their traditional process. Each metal chessman is formed slowly in moulds that have been in service for more than 30 years. Molten nickel or brass is poured gradually into the casts and left to set overnight.
Once cooled, the craftsmen inspect, finish, and present the pieces. We offer our customers the chance to own a metal chess set produced by a Florentine maker of long-standing reputation.
