The board's frame is a work of art in itself, showcasing a sophisticated stacked lamination of warm Cherry and bright Curly Maple.

The corners are further elevated with Birdseye Maple inlays, providing a subtle yet captivating detail that completes this luxurious design.
A unique and durable design feature, the playing surface is securely held within the board by threaded inserts, carefully glued into the backside and screwed into a robust MDF substrate. This innovative construction ensures stability and longevity, allowing for generations of engaging play.
This prototype chessboard seamlessly blends traditional woodworking techniques with modern design elements, making it a unique and captivating addition to any home.
