Nicer than I have ever expected!!

This Spanish chess board maker makes veneered boards better than "some" make solid boards. This is the second one I have and the first one which is about 10 years old still looks new.
The packing is second to none. for a chessboard. This has always been a problem for chess boards but no way it could come through damaged from shipping.
It's very rare for me to say it deserves better than 5 stars. This board has the WOW FACTOR.
