We are delighted to offer this Mixed Metal & Inlaid Stone Chess Set by Los Castillo!

  It has a mid-century style,  this set was purchased in Mexico, at the Los Castillo Plateros De Taxco Shop and comes with a copy of the statement invoice dated 1984 and signed by master craftsman Antonio Castillo Teran.  That is the purchase date, not the date that it was crafted.  A one of a kind!

It is complete, each piece is masterfully crafted as shown.  The king measures 3 1/2" and the pawn 2 1/2" so you can see the range in sizes of the pieces.  I can find no signature on the pieces themselves.  I have shown front and back views. They all have a stone inlay and are a delight.   The pieces are in excellent condition - with a few really tiny flea dings. The crown on one of the kings is loose but is an easy fix.  No damage.  Just an amazing treasure!

The pieces come in their original wood chess board case which is also in Excellent condition.

In Las Vegas!

SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS: 

We sell a variety of items in all shapes and sizes and take great pains to wrap them properly so they will reach you safely.  We begin this process after the item has been won and paid for - and this generally takes a couple of days.  Then we have to wait (usually the next day) for a pick up of the item. It seems lately, everyone wants it yesterday - but we don't drop ship so please have a bit of patience. (2-3 days to ship)   Also remember that is more to shipping than postage.   We add a very small handling fee for boxes and bubble, etc.  We Use the shipping calculator provided and do not have control over its calculations.   Sometimes it charges more than it should - we automaticly refund after the item ships.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: 

Please note that we will ship internationally, but will only ship it Internation Global EXPRESS, which will track it and insure it and this method is more expensive.

Do not ask us to lie on the customs form.  It is what it is. 

Please do not ask us to alter the merchandise from the way it was offered for sale - ie: taking prints out of frames, removing one piece from another.  It is what it is.
