Our Classic Mahogany and Maple Chess Board is wonderfully handcrafted from the finest veneers and sealed in a semi-gloss polyurethane finish that both enhances and protects the character of the wood. This board features 1.75” squares and has a footprint of 17.5" and is .5” thick. We framed the squares in a wide black delimiter to both accentuate the playing area and enhance the rich color of the mahogany and maple. The craftsmanship of the inlay work is remarkable. For balance of design and visual aesthetics, we enveloped the board with a frame the full width of the squares. This beautiful chess board offers both old world charm and functionality to enhance the enjoyment of every game you play,
