Elevate your chess experience with our Olive Burl and Oak chess board set. Featuring a 40×40 cm playing surface, this chess board comes with finely crafted Staunton pieces, with a 7.7 cm king.
The olive burl and oak board stands out for its unique patterns and exceptional durability. Its elaborate marquetry design adds a touch of sophistication and elegance to your chess collection.
The Staunton chess pieces, in rosewood and boxwood, offer a perfect balance of beauty and functionality.
This set includes a laminated wood storage box, designed to hold both the chess pieces and the chess board, making it very practical for transport and storage. It also makes a beautiful gift box.
Choosing the right board size
A beautiful chess set rests on a simple balance: pieces well proportioned to the size of the squares. To choose a harmonious board, the most reliable guide is the diameter of the king's base.
Key guideline: ideally, the king's base takes up about 75% of the square.

A board that is too small can hamper moves and make the set look cluttered. À l’inverse, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole. The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.
