Artisan Craft and Materials

The playing surface combines beech and birch wood for a classic, warm finish that echoes time‑honored handwork. When closed, the board measures 21.65 inches in width and sits about 1.18 inches tall, with generously sized squares at 2.24 inches each. Brass clasps secure the two halves, making transport and display tidy and secure.

Hand-Carved Pieces with Thoughtful Weight

Carved from hornbeam and sycamore, the figures feature felt bottoms and a balanced heft that feels satisfying in the hand and on the board. The king stands at 4.5 inches, the queen at 3.66 inches, and pawns around 2.28 inches, with intricate detailing that rewards close observation and respectful handling.

Smart Storage Inside the Board

Inside the board, compartments cradle each piece securely, keeping everything organized and ready for play. When tucked away, the set doubles as a refined display piece that can sit proudly on a shelf or mantel.
