Chess Boards

Premium chess boards for every player

Our collection includes everything from handcrafted wooden boards to luxury exhibition boards, compact travel boards, roll-up boards, and collector-grade display pieces. We stock exceptional brands such as Rechapados Ferrer, Dal Rossi, Chess Bazaar, House of Staunton, Manopoulos, Sunrise Chess & Games, and more—each chosen for its craftsmanship, precision, and long-term durability.

If you're a traditionalist, our range of classic wooden boards is unmatched. Crafted from premium hardwoods such as walnut, wenge, mahogany, maple, and ebony-style veneers, these boards offer timeless beauty and a smooth, polished playing surface. 

Many are handmade in Spain by Rechapados Ferrer—the same manufacturer trusted by top luxury chess brands around the world.

For players who appreciate elegance and modern aesthetics, we also stock high-gloss boards, metal-accented boards, and themed designs from brands like Manopoulos and Royal Selangor. These boards don’t just perform well—they’re statement pieces that look incredible on a desk, coffee table, or display shelf.

If portability matters, we offer lightweight folding boards, magnetic travel boards, and compact designs ideal for school, clubs, and everyday carry. Sunrise Chess & Games produces excellent folding wooden boards that combine practicality with Old-World craftsmanship—a favourite among families and casual players.

Many chess board sizes available

Choosing the right size is important, too. That’s why we offer boards in a wide range of square sizes, from 40mm up to full tournament size at 55mm. Whether you already have a set of pieces or need help pairing them correctly, our chess specialists can guide you to the perfect match.

At Sterling Chess, authenticity and quality come first. Every board we sell is sourced directly from the original manufacturer—never grey imports or lower-quality imitations. As a specialist chess retailer, we also offer personalised support, fast shipping, and the confidence that comes from buying locally from a team who genuinely understands the craft.
