Description
This is a complete set of chessmen, hand-carved out of African elephant ivory in the early 1960's. The figures measure from 2 1/2 inches (pawns) to 4 inches (kings and queens) and are very african in design. They are natural in color for the white peices and dyed black for the opposing black pieces. All peices are there and intact. They were brought back to the United States some time in the 60's and have been in my family ever since then.
