    Beautifully Designed

    As a designer, I love this chess set. On top of being a sucker for pretty things, I’m also a stickler for quality, and Nymzo’s attention to the genuine quality of their product thoroughly meets expectations. Can’t wait to see what you guys come up with next.

    Also, customer support is unexpectedly well-received and comfortable.

    Chess is not exclusive of style!

    This board exceeded all of my expectations. Attention to detail is top notch and this is easily the best looking board in my entirely too big collection. It’s a joy to play on and I can’t wait to see what Nymzo brings next. Fantastic board!

    The missing piece

    This is the missing chess set I have been searching for. Always wanted a set that I could bring to the outdoors. This set is perfect for any outdoor enthusiast. The mat and pieces are high quality. IN LOVE!

    Amazing chess set

    I like playing chess but I also love well designed things, and this chess set is that. You can just tell how much thought went into it. Once you hold it in your hands, you’ll see what I mean.
