Dal Rossi Black & White PU Leather Bevelled Edge 40cm Chess Board With Storage

The Dal Rossi Black & White PU Leather Bevelled Edge 40cm Chess Board With Storage brings a tailored, modern look to the classic chess box. Black and white PU leather wraps the box, a bevelled edge frames the playing surface, and a hinged lid opens onto compartments that hold your chess pieces.

The board also locks, and the keys come in the box, so the board and the set stored inside can stay secured between games, on a shelf at home or in a shared space. It is sold as the board only, ready for the pieces you choose.

It sits in the Dal Rossi range as the compact, lockable option in a contemporary leather finish.

Key features

  • 40cm (16 inch) chess box in black and white PU leather
  • Bevelled edge that frames the board and gives a comfortable grip
  • Hinged lid with storage compartments underneath
  • Divided compartments that stop pieces scratching against each other
  • Lockable lid, with the keys included in the box
  • 40mm squares on a clean playing surface with no notation
  • Sold as the board only, ready for the pieces you choose
  • Designed by Dal Rossi, creating board games since the 1980s

How a leather finish compares to a timber board

Most chess boxes are finished in timber. This one is wrapped in black and white PU leather instead, which gives it a sharp, tailored look that suits modern furniture, a home office or a monochrome room. The bevelled edge softens the outline and makes the box comfortable to pick up and carry.

If you prefer a traditional wooden look, our chess boards collection has timber and carbon fibre boards with storage as well.

Designed by Dal Rossi

Dal Rossi has been creating board games since the 1980s, with Italian designers and skilled artisans working together on its designs. This board shows the brand's more contemporary side: a practical chess box with a lock, finished in black and white PU leather.

The brand's focus is classic games done properly, from chess sets and boards to backgammon and checkers, and this board brings the playing surface and secure storage together in one piece.

Storage that locks

Lift the hinged lid and the compartments sit underneath, divided so your pieces stay apart and do not scratch against each other. Everything goes back into the board you play on, so the set stays complete between games.

Then lock it. With the keys included, the board can be left out on display or stored in a shared space knowing the pieces inside stay where you left them.

Choosing pieces for a 40cm board

The board measures 40cm (16 inches) across with 40mm squares, and the playing surface carries no notation. A good guide is to choose pieces whose king base takes up no more than 80 percent of the square, which on this board means a king base of 32mm or less.

Pieces in black and white or a natural boxwood and ebony finish suit the leather look well. Browse our chess pieces collection to find a set in that size range.

Our expert take

“The lock is what sets this board apart: a compact leather chess box that keeps your pieces secured under a hinged lid, with a bevelled black and white finish that looks sharp in a modern room. The caveat is size: at 40cm with 40mm squares it suits smaller pieces, and it is sold as the board only, so budget for a set that fits. It suits players who want a secure, tidy home for their pieces.”
