Our Mahogany and Maple Deluxe Chess Board is an excellent choice for contrasting with ebony or ebonized chess sets. Rosewood chess sets are also a favorite with mahogany as the rich and warm colors of the mahogany and rosewood compliment each other extremely well. A triple inlay (white-black-white) pinstripe around the playing area along with an extra wide frame gives the chess board an elegant look. The chess board is sealed in a polyurethane finish that both protects and enhances the natural beauty of the wood! Made from the finest veneer available, the precise inlay work by the craftsmen of Rechapados Ferrer is simply unsurpassed!

Imported from Spain, Rechapados Ferrer is the largest manufacturer and the most recognized name of high quality wood chess boards in the world.
I love the warmth of mahogany. This smaller chessboard is a nice pairing with my smaller set of chess pieces (boxwood and rosewood). It makes for a nice, friendly-feeling set that I use for setting up my on-line games on a side table, but that I'd feel happy using to play a friendly game with anyone. It makes me feel happy to see the depth that the dark highlights in the mahogany frame brings out in the squares. This, with a modest set of wooden pieces, would make a very handsome gift for a chess enthusiast. As usual, I love the Rechapados Ferrer craftsmanship.

The quality is incredible. It's so smooth it seems fake, but looking at the veneer you can see it's real and the wood is beautiful.
