The strands have to pass over and under each other at an even pitch the whole way round, and if one crossing is off the eye finds it immediately. That interlaced rope runs the full border of this chess board, with leaf detailing worked in behind it, and inside the frame the playing field is left plain in maple and walnut so nothing competes with the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rest of it is built for use. It folds in half into a case with a handle cut into the edge, weighs 3 kg, and closes to 15.7 x 7.9\" \/ 40 x 20 cm with all 32 turned pieces inside on a felt-lined base. That is the whole appeal of a carved chess set at this size: good enough to leave standing on a shelf, light enough that taking it somewhere never feels like a decision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolding chess board with a built-in carry handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 turned chess pieces in beech and walnut wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen board: 15.7 x 15.7\" \/ 40 x 40 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolded: 15.7 x 7.9\" \/ 40 x 20 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 3 kg \/ 6.6 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: solid beech wood with maple and walnut inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in carry handle and felt-lined base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEntirely handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn interlaced rope border carved by hand, even at every crossing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA plain inlaid playing field — all the detail is in the frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolds into its own case with a handle cut into the edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFelt-lined base so the pieces travel without knocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift Worth Giving\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA safe present that does not feel safe.
