16" Solid Padouk & Maple Chess Board w/ 2 " Squares
The set includes the fantastic, US made solid-wood chess boards. These boards are hand crafted solid blocks of Padouk and Maple (with a pearly tone for the maple). They have a design that straddles both modern and rustic and due to their hand carved construction, no two are ever the same. Padouk is an interesting color with a strong, deep red that develops and darkens over time with exposure to light. It works great with black, ebony, or crimson rosewood chess pieces.
This board has 2" squares.

Two features were not listed about this board; 1) it has a satin finish, (my personal preference). 2) This board is double-sided; meaning there is no felt bottom or feet. You can flip this board and choose whether the wood grain is vertical or horizontal, (I prefer horizontal).
I took off half a star because it is not perfectly flat. Not a deal-breaker at all, and in no way affects the playability, beauty, and enjoyment of this board. Place a towel or placemat underneath, and it is not even an issue.
The quality of construction and finish is superb. Heavy, thick, and unique. Should last for generations.
I am using my ebony 3.25" w 1.5" base Fischer Spassky Library Reykjavik Series pieces. It just looks right. So easy to "see" the pieces, to "see" the game!
Very happy with this purchase!
