About us

Wooden chess boards and pieces are handmade in workshops in Poland and India. Each item is shaped on traditional lathes, weighted, polished and felted by hand. We use responsibly sourced hardwoods such as walnut, beech, sycamore, mahogany and maple. Tournament lines follow official size and weight guidelines, and every product page shows the exact country of origin.

Where our sets come from

Wooden boards and pieces are handmade in Poland and India by experienced artisans. Each set is lathe turned, weighted, and carefully polished before it leaves the workshop.

We use premium, responsibly sourced woods such as walnut, sycamore, mahogany, rosewood and maple, giving each set its own character and lasting durability.

We are not just selling chess products. We help create lifelong memories. Whether it is a gift for someone special, a teaching tool for a child or the centrepiece of your study, our sets are made to be played, treasured and passed on.
