This beautiful European palissandre and maple chess board is the perfect complement to the exquisite chess set you already have or have in mind.
Palissandre wood, also known as Wenge wood or African/Congolese rosewood is a very dark and dense tropical timber. It has excellent workability, and is very durable and slow to rot. It provides dimensional stability and the perfect colour contrast when mixed with lighter woods such as Maple. Maple wood is light in colour and has a highly decorative wood grain. The combination of these two wood grains makes this chess board the perfect choice at an extremely moderate price.
This veneered chess board has a satin-like finish, giving a smooth touch to the boards and protecting chess players from light reflection. It will age very well possessing a fundamental quality that will last through the knocks of life that will inevitably occur.
It features the high quality workmanship you have come to enjoy in a European game collection.
Free your inner chess master or indulge a friend's hobby. Great executive gift idea for the hard to please.
Available in various sizes.
