Chess Origin:

The roots of chess trace back to northwest India in the 6th century, evolving over time into the modern game we recognize today. Its journey along the Silk Road, reaching Western Europe and Russia by the 9th century, finds expression in this unique chess set. The ancient concept of Chaturaṅga, signifying "four divisions," metamorphosed into the modern pawn, knight, bishop, and rook. The game's diffusion through Muslim Iberia and Latin Europe, its adoption by the Muslim world post the conquest of Persia, and the etymology of "checkmate" from Persian contribute to the rich and multifaceted history of chess.
