This beautiful classic wooden chess set is made using quality solid hardwoods and precision craftsmanship for an heirloom quality showcase set. The handmade chess board is made in our shop in Missouri and features dark squares of solid black walnut and light squares of solid maple. The solid walnut border gives the board a clean, classic look. The board is backed with baltic birch, and rubber pads on the bottom facilitate slip-free play.
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 3.25" king (king's base is 1-1/4"). Light pieces are boxwood, dark pieces are sheesham wood. Pieces are weighted with green felt on bottom. Extra queens for pawn promotion can be added here. Choose regular size.
Premium pieces: In this premium Staunton-style set, the king is 3" tall (base is 1-1/2"). This set features a smooth finish and highly detailed carving. Light pieces are boxwood, dark pieces are acacia wood. Double queens are included. Pieces are nicely weighted for a substantial feel in the hand and lined with green felt on the bottom.
Wooden checkers are available. Choose regular size.

Gifts: If you're having this shipped directly to the gift recipient, please let us know and we will leave out the packing slip/receipt with price info. We'd also be happy to include a gift message. Just include your message when you check out.
Each handmade wooden chess board is unique due to natural variations in the color and grain of wood. This is part of the beauty of working with natural materials. The chess board you receive will vary slightly from the ones pictured here, but will be equally beautiful.
We offer a handmade padded cover to protect your chess board and a solid wood box for storing your chess pieces. Choose regular size.
We plant 5 trees for every product we sell through a partnership with Trees for the Future. So far, we've helped plant more than 53,000 trees. Read more here.
