Craftsmanship is at the heart of the manufacture of Hector Saxe leather chess sets, where each piece is designed with passion and precision.

Worked with exacting craftsmanship, it guarantees an impeccable finish and optimum durability. At Hector Saxe, only the finest skins are selected and crafted using techniques that combine tradition and innovation. Each chess set thus becomes a unique work of art, a symbol of excellence and attention to detail, true to the values of the company.

MANUFACTURING TECHNIQUES 

The manufacture of a leather-wrapped chess set relies on exceptional craftsmanship. Here are the main stages:

1. -Material selection – Choice of top-of-the-range, supple and resistant leather, as well as other elements (wood, alcantara, etc.).
2. -Cutting and preparation – The various parts of the chess set are precision-cut. (e.g.: box, squares and combs).
3. -Sheathing – The leather is delicately stretched and glued to the support, with perfect adjustment of corners and edges.
4. -Assembly and finishing – The parts of the chess set are assembled, the combs associated, and any seams or markings made.
5. -Quality control and polishing – Each chess set is checked for impeccable feel and finish before shipping.
