Description

Just purchased this chess set, can anyone tell me anything about it's age, what it's made from, or where it was made? The pieces are wooden, the details are carved into the wood, not painted on, and the ivory colored parts are hard like plastic but don't appear to be, and also appear to be hand carved as they are imperfect. Any information is helpful. Thank you!
