Re: Bone or Ivory Chess Sets

Hi Everyone, I am still around looking for bone and ivory chess sets. My email is the same rodrigur1999@yahoo.com .

I would like to say chess sets are the same as anything else, price is relative to the market, size, condition, age, etc. Please dont contact me with a small bone chess set and ask 3k. it is not realistic.

Bone chess sets sell on ebay for $50-$250 based on size and condition.

Ivory chess sets sell on ebay for a little more than that, unless the ivory is 6 inches high you are not going to get 1k for it.

I am knowledgeable in this field, so please do not try to waist my time, i will be honest and tell you about your set, and give you a fair market apprasal. thanks, rene

How much did the 40 year old Chinese ivory set sell for, because I also have a 40 year old Chinese ivory chess set I am looking to sell. Please reply even if that is confidential, I would like an estimate for mine.

Re: Bone or Ivory Chess Sets

I buy storage units that have defaulted and are sent thru a bid process facilitated by an auctioneer. One of the units I purchased had this chess set. I am not 100% sure if my researching has taken me to the correct information regarding the specific details.

Here are some of the details:

Chinese, Ivory, Hand Carved, Excellent Condition. All of the pieces are very detailed. Only the King, Queen and Bishop have additional detailed artwork designs throughout their entire wardrobe. They all stand on a 1/2" platform.

If interested in discussing further and reviewing pictures, please email me at:
