Renowned British luxury chess maker Geoffrey Parker just dropped the “Silver Jubilee Edition Chessboard,” one of the priciest chess sets on the planet. It’s a stunning revival of their 1960s classic, originally crafted to honor Queen Elizabeth’s Silver Jubilee.
Priced at a jaw-dropping £48,728 (about $77,880), this beauty comes in gleaming sterling silver, silver-gilt, or even solid gold. It’s a considerably more modest price tag compared to the maker’s own $7.5 million poker set, which held over 22,000 precious stones across its alligator-skin case and diamond-edged chips. You can pick from all Dauphin calf leather colors, with full personalization available on request. Oh, and it’s officially approved by the United States Chess Federation.
Game on?
