Description
I have a "Genuine African Elephane Tusk Ivory" chess set, that was imported from the "Hang On" Ivory factory in Hong Kong in the mid 1960's. They are hand carved figures with a multi-ball base. The King is 8 inches tall and the ball is 9 layers. The pawn is 4 inches tall and the ball is 5 layers. The other pieces range in size between the king and the pawn. The chess board also serves as a storage place for the chess pieces, it is lined in velvet and when opened and set up the board is 2 ft x 2ft x 3 in. The set consists of white ivory pieces and stained brown ivory pieces.
