48cm red ash burl and maple chess board

At 48 cm x 48 cm, this chessboard gives you the space you need to become a grandmaster.

The red ash burl and maple give this board a firm, steady feel you notice right away.

The darker ash has a deep tone that stays clear in normal light and the lighter maple keeps every square easy to see.

Both woods pair cleanly and create a look that feels refined without trying too hard.

The board fits well in any room and has the strength to handle daily use without marking up fast.

Luxury Chess Bazaar chess pieces

The Excalibur Luxury chess set uses the rare bud rosewood for the dark pieces and boxwood for the light pieces.

Both woods have strong weight so every piece feels firm in your hands and when you lift it to make your move.

The bud rosewood shows a deep, natural tone that holds up well paired with boxwood that has a clean, smooth surface.

These woods resist marks better than softer woods, which helps the set stay sharp even with regular use.

And the natural grain in each piece gives the set a bit of character that you will never get from plastic.

Crafted to the highest standards by artisans

The Excalibur Luxury chess set shows careful handwork and shaping in every detail.

Each piece has clean lines, smooth curves and defined edges that sit well in your hand.

The board has clear squares, an even surface and a layout that keeps every move simple to follow.

Overall, it is a well crafted set now available in Australia for players who appreciate great craftsmanship, finishing and consistent quality.

Frequently asked questions

Are the pieces real bud rosewood and boxwood?

Yes, the dark pieces use rare bud rosewood and the light pieces use boxwood. Both woods are authentic and chosen for strength, weight and clear detail.

Will the pieces feel heavy enough for daily play?

Each piece is weighted and has a thick felt base, so they feel firm in the hand and stay steady during each move.

Does the knight really follow the King Arthur design?

The knight takes its shape from the idea of King Arthur’s sword, with strong lines around the head and mane that give it a defined look.

Is the shine on the dark pieces easy to maintain?

The gloss finish holds up well with normal use. A soft cloth is enough to keep the surface looking clean.

Will the board mark easily over time?

The red ash burl and maple board is tough and holds up well to regular games. It resists quick wear and stays flat.

Are the pieces carved by hand or machine made?

The shaping includes hand carving, especially on the knights and detailed areas. Turned pieces follow metal guides for consistent shapes.

Do the pieces match in size and style across the set?

Yes, the sizes follow clear proportions from king to pawn, and the turned pieces match closely for a uniform look.

Is this set suitable for long games and study sessions?

The board gives clear contrast and enough space for focused play, and the pieces stay stable even during long sessions.

How well does the set hold up as a display piece?

The deep tones of the bud rosewood, the clean boxwood and the patterned board make the set look strong on any shelf or table.
