$9.8 million Chess Set


A chess is a game that we usually played using our mind and tactics. We used a chess board with chess pieces, labeled by the piece originally occupying its first rank (i.e. Queen, King's rook, Queen's bishop).Do you know that we can buy a luxurious chess set that cost a million dollar?I think you did not heard it , that most expensive chess set is worth $9.8 million (over £5 million) . This is the Jewel Royale Chess Set from Boodles that are constructed of gold and platinum and it is decorated with 73 rubies, 146 sapphires and no less than 748 diamonds Each piece is made from 18 carat yellow gold and encrusted with precious stones. The king alone is worth more than £100,000. Apparently, there will be a limited number of replica sets selling for about $26,700.
