Crafted with passion and care, this16-inch chess board is made from solid Sheesham and Maple wood, offering a striking contrast between the rich tones of Sheesham and the light, elegant hues of Maple. With 1.75-inch squares, it is perfectly sized for casual and tournament play. It would suit up to a 3.5 inch king
What makes this chess board truly special is its completely handcrafted nature. Each board is carefully made by skilled artisans, resulting in unique quirks and characteristics that no machine can replicate. These subtle imperfections, or what we prefer to call "character," give the board a rustic charm that sets it apart from mass-produced alternatives.
If you're searching for the flawless perfection of a machine finish, this may not be the board for you. However, if you appreciate the beauty in individuality, the warmth of natural wood, and the soul of something made by hand, this board is perfect for you. The odd flaw isn't a defect—it's a testament to the personal touch of craftsmanship, making each board truly one of a kind.
For those who value authentic artistry over uniformity, this handmade Sheesham and Maple chess board will be a timeless addition to your collection.
