Chess Game Tables
The ultimate centerpiece for any true chess enthusiast - this is more than just a chess board, but a beautiful piece of furniture that will complete your living or game room. Enjoy the game of chess at its height of elegance with a table or pedastil chess board!
Wooden Chess Boards
Wood is the classic choice for chess enthusiasts. Typically made of walnut, redwood, cypress or mahogany - they are a majestic furnishing to a room, beyond being an intriguing game. The following boards are for the true chess enthusiast, and are the pinnacle of quality craftsmanship.
Pewter Chess Boards
Pewter is a metal alloy primarily made of tin mixed with copper. Pewter chess sets have a shiny, stylish appearance that distinctly accent certain room motifs. Note that the following products have Pewter chessmen, as all boards are always made of wood.
Marble Chess Boards
Marvel at marble! Marble chess sets are solid and classically designed, and fit the decor of modern homes nicely. They are, however, not the chess board choice for very young children due to their fragile nature.
Glass Chess Boards
Futuristic and eye-catching, glass chess boards give the effect of a heightened level of luminance and detail. Light up the area under the board for added effect! Like marble, it is not the optimal choice if you have young children around.
