As a Decorative Accent:
The word "marble" derives from a Greek word that means "shining stone”. Marble was the favorite medium for Greek and Roman sculptors and architects. Because of this, marble and decorative objects such as marble chess sets, have become cultural symbols of tradition and refined taste.
As an Appreciation Gift:
Chess is a game long associated with power, strategy, and achievement. Symbolizing the ascendancy of intelligence over chance, chess relates directly and easily to the strategic aspects of business. Chess sets then, can make great appreciation gifts for respected clients, vendors, producers or decision-makers in an organization. Marble chess sets, with their weight, beauty and traditonal associations with civilizations both ancient and modern are particularily appropriate for this purpose.
