“Way more stunning in person.”

As beautiful as this board appears online, it s even more breathtaking in person. I have very recently learned how to play chess and have been playing incessantly online, so I decided to treat myself to a real board, and when I stumbled upon this one I knew it was a no brainer. I placed it on my coffee table so it s not only a gorgeous center piece, it s a functional one as well. Thank you for this product!
