My Dubrovnik II from CB in crimson on a gray burl (ash burl?) and maple 22" board that came from Italy takes the ribbon. All displayed on a bamboowood table with a customized lamp. A thin red stripe surrounds the 18" playing surface of the board and it just pops romantically with the red pieces.
Secondly, my 1941 WWII Pinney set from CB on my 18 yr old walnut/maple 60mm sq. board. The pitch black pieces look devilish against those brown and dark gold squares.
I have a thing for fine wood boards. I own eight.
Awesome!
You have great taste. My Dubrovnik 2 in crimson red stained and boxwood is a DELIGHT to play with! 
Easily my favorite set ever... and I own over 20 sets, most of them "luxury" quality.

I have my favorite set: Danum both natural ebony and padouk, from Staunton Castle. My favorite board would be the Queen Anne from Chess House, which I don't own.

That is one beautiful set! And it's not as expensive as it looks, at least on photo. The board also is fitting well.
My vintage Chavet B210 on a vintage Drueke 64 board.

My perfect set is not in time. It's back where I come from most likely covered in Angel dust by now.
