Pearl White Epoxy Chess Set with Brass Corner Feet — Handmade in Armenia
Light against lighter: the dark squares of this chess set are pearly white epoxy with a lilac vein, poured into pale wood, so the contrast comes from sheen rather than colour. A flat 30 × 30 cm / 11.8″ × 11.8″ slab on a cast brass foot at each corner, handmade in Armenia, with 32 turned pieces and a bag.
Each white square on this wooden chess set is a separate pour, clouding like mother-of-pearl and polished flush with the honey and pale wood around it, and the coordinates sit in round discs with brass rims and figures along a border of the same wood. The four feet are cast in relief and cap the corners, lifting the board a finger's width off the table.
The pieces bring the only real dark to the set: turned wood, sixteen pale and sixteen stained brown, the kings tipped with a contrasting finial and scaled to the small squares. No hinge and no fold — this is a solid board that lives on a desk or a side table rather than in a drawer.

Good to Know Before You Buy
Is the epoxy real? Yes. The white is epoxy resin poured into each square and polished level with the pale wood, so it is part of the board rather than a coating; the corner feet are cast brass, the coordinate discs are brass-rimmed, and the pieces are turned wood. Nothing is printed.
