Byzantine Empire - Blue chess set - Constatntions Manopoulos

The luxurious Greek manufacturer Constatntions Manopoulos was founded over four decades ago in 1970!

The brand name derives from George Manopoulos, who created a modern chess trend by combining wood with metal in the manufacture of unique backgammon sets.

Manopoulos is renowned worldwide for its unique technique of crafting spectacular sets of traditional strategic games such as chess and backgammon.

The brand's goal is to use the highest quality materials and handcrafted finishes, ensuring that their products will faithfully serve you for a very long time, maintaining their perfect appearance and condition!

For the production of chess sets, they use zinc alloy casting, which is then hand-painted and lacquered, while traditional Greek chessboards are made from high-quality wood, including:

-    walnut,
-   mahogany,
-    olive wood,
-   oak.

This meticulous and detailed craftsmanship results in products that are finely polished and exceptionally attractive.

Manopoulos products are not only games but also luxurious decorations.

Constatntions Manopoulos continues George Manopoulos's legacy and constantly seeks out modern trends.

Manopoulos offers stunning chess sets — figures, boards, storage boxes for chess pieces, and other strategic games such as backgammon.

Currently, MANOPOULOS is a globally renowned innovative company producing chess and backgammon sets in an innovative and unique style!

    What should you consider when choosing a game set?

Experienced players recommend choosing wooden chess sets because wood's durability is a significant advantage. Additionally, when selecting chess pieces, pay attention to their bases — the best are those with fabric bottoms. This ensures they won't scratch your board during play.

    Is it worth teaching children to play chess?

Learning to play chess supports the comprehensive development of a child — it trains memory, enhances abstract and logical thinking, and teaches determination and patience.
The mental and character traits developed through this are evident not only at the chessboard. The benefits are visible early in a child's education, manifesting as improved concentration, ease of remembering details, and quickness in finding correct solutions. So, we see that playing chess is not only an intellectual game but also a significant investment in our children's minds.

We recommend the assortment of the globally renowned brand Manopoulos to all those seeking traditional yet original logical games.
