Tournament Size- Carved Board Chess Set with Choice of Pieces

from $425.00

This beautiful tournament-size wooden chess set is made of quality solid hardwoods. The handmade chess board is made in our shop in Missouri and features dark squares of solid walnut and light squares of solid maple, with a solid walnut border. Choose a repeating geometric design or graceful calligraphy style for the border carving.

This is a large chess board, with a playing surface of 18" square and overall size of 21-1/2" square. This is the same size as a regulation tournament board.

Pieces: Set includes solid wooden chessmen made by craftsmen in India, the global leader in quality wooden chess pieces. Pieces come in a cotton drawstring bag. Choose standard or premium.

Standard pieces: This is a quality Staunton-style wooden chess set with 3-3/4" king (king's base is 1-1/2"). Light pieces are boxwood, dark pieces are acacia wood. Pieces are weighted with green felt on bottom. Extra queens for pawn promotion available here. Choose tournament size.

Premium pieces: These Staunton-style pieces are tall and graceful with a 4” king (king's base is 1-3/4"). This set features a beautiful smooth finish and more detailed carving. Double queens are included. Light pieces are boxwood, dark pieces are sheesham. Pieces are nicely weighted for a substantial feel in the hand and lined with green felt on the bottom.

Wooden checkers are available here. Choose large/tournament size.

Custom engraving: If you’d like to engrave names, dates, or a short message on the back of your chess board, select the custom engraving option and enter your request in the box provided when you add the board to your cart. We’ll send a proof for your approval, so please watch for that email.

Dimensions:
Playing surface: 18" x 18" (2-1/4" squares)
Overall size with border: 21-1/2" square x 3/4" thick

The board is backed with baltic birch, and rubber pads on the bottom facilitate slip-free play. Each wooden chess board is unique due to the natural variations in the color and grain of wood. This is part of the beauty of working with natural materials. The board you receive will vary slightly from the one pictured here, but will be equally beautiful.

Lead time: Ships in 1-3 business days

Please let us know if you need to receive the board by a certain date or have other special instructions.

Also available:
A tailored padded cover to protect your heirloom quality chess board.
A handmade lined solid wood box for storing your chess pieces.

Gifts: If you're having this shipped directly to the gift recipient, let us know and we’ll leave out the packing slip with price info. If you’d like us to include a gift message just include your message when you check out.
