NOTE: We are redesigning the Carton Pierre Casket, which is why these have
been discontinued.
The Carton Pierre Casket
is our tribute to arguably the most famous (and beautiful) of the Chess
boxes ever produced. Originally offered by the firm Jaques of London in
1849, The Carton Pierre Caskets were were offered exclusively with their finest
Chessmen. With it's strong gothic styling and Chess connotations in its designs,
it is as beautiful as it is functional. The Carton Pierre Casket features a
heavily padded storage area and is lined with rich Red velvet (as shown below.).
- 10" x 7.5" x 4.5"
- Envisioned and Designed by the Maestro, Frank A. Camaratta, Jr.
- Can hold Staunton Pattern Chessmen with up to a 4.0" King - Including
4 Queens!
- Heavily padded storage (including lid area) provides the highest level of
protection for your Chessmen.
- Features a recessed underside, which allows production labels to be
attached and displayed to the Carton Pierre Casket without worrying about
them being damaged..
