Luxury Classic Chess Set with Scalloped Frame

Luxury Classic Chess Set with Scalloped Frame

Some boards are trying to be noticed. This one is trying to be right. The walnut frame is cut with a soft scallop along each edge and given a finely textured surface, and then it stops — no carving competing with the game, no pattern pulling your eye off the squares. What you get is a wooden chess set that looks quietly expensive from across the room and completely uncluttered when you sit down at it.

It is the size serious players actually want: a full 19.6" / 50 cm of maple and walnut inlay, so the pieces have room and nothing feels cramped in the endgame. And it folds in half and lifts by a built-in handle, which is unusual at this size — most 50 cm boards stay wherever you first put them. This handmade chess set closes with the 32 pieces inside and goes wherever the game is.
