The board is 55cm square with 55mm squares, so eight squares give a 44cm playing grid, and the timber pairing is yours to choose: black dyed poplar against olive, black dyed poplar against white erable, grey ash burl against white erable, blue ash burl against white erable, or red ash burl against maple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of them are veneer. That is what allows the swirling figure of a burl to run across a full rank of squares, and it is why a board of this footprint still weighs between 2,900g and 3,072g rather than something you need two hands and a plan for.

Every pairing on this board is recommended for a king base of 40mm to 45mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt that ratio the king covers roughly three quarters of its square and the pawns keep a clear margin around them.

The black dyed poplar pairings, with olive and with white erable, are matte: the surface reads as timber rather than lacquer, and it does not throw a lamp back at you. The ash burl pairings, in grey, blue and red, are hi-gloss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGloss deepens figure. Burl is a chaotic, unpredictable grain, and a shiny surface makes it look wet and noticeably darker, which is most of the reason to choose it. It also picks up fingerprints and reflects a ceiling light, so it rewards a room where you control the lighting. Matte is the calmer choice for a board that stays out on a table under whatever light the room happens to have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne difference sits underneath the finish rather than on it. The red ash burl and maple pairing is built to 12mm where the rest of the listing is 13mm.

Captured pieces have to go somewhere and two players need forearm space either side, so measure the table before ordering rather than after the carton arrives. On most dining tables it leaves a comfortable margin; on a small side table it will not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weight is what separates this from a folding travel board without turning it into furniture. Between 2,900g and 3,072g depending on the pairing, it stays where it is put on a smooth table and still moves between rooms easily. These are handmade items, so the finished weight can vary by up to 10 percent either way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare is simple. Keep it out of direct sun and away from heat vents, wipe it with a dry soft cloth, and do not stand a drink on the playing surface. The hi-gloss pairings show fingerprints sooner than the matte ones, so they want wiping down more often, which is worth knowing before you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"TWO_COLUMN_GRID-Jy9rOh9Phg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-two-column-grid page_crafter_two_column_grid-Jy9rOh9Phg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h3 page_crafter_two_column_heading-Jy9rOh9Phg page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eOur expert take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_grid_plain_text-Jy9rOh9Phg     page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reason to look at this board is the surface: veneer is what makes grey, blue and red ash burl possible across a full 55cm board, and the black dyed poplar pairings give you the same trick in something quieter. At 13mm, and 12mm on the red ash burl and maple pairing, it is a lighter build than the 20mm and 22mm timber boards we carry at a similar footprint, so it will not plant itself on a table the way a thicker board does. The 40mm to 45mm base window also rules out the larger luxury patterns, so measure what you own before ordering. It suits a player with a club standard set who wants some character under the game rather than another plain chequerboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-expert-signature\"\u003e- Blake Sterling, CEO \u0026amp; Founder, Sterling Chess\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_grid_media_container-Jy9rOh9Phg  page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Blue ash burl and white erable 55cm chess board with a hi-gloss surface\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0945\/5507\/9024\/files\/blue_ash_burl_chessboard_7.jpg?v=1788169547\u0026amp;width=1000\" class=\"page-crafter-image-base-class page_crafter_grid_media-Jy9rOh9Phg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"SPACER-Ni4oSp9Asg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"height: 20px;\" class=\"page-crafter-block\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"HEADING-Vz5nQk8Wkf\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"page-crafter-h2 page_crafter_heading-Vz5nQk8Wkf\"\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"ACCORDIAN-Qi6dPp0Emq\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_accordian-Qi6dPp0Emq page-crafter-accordian-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eAre chess pieces included?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This listing is the board on its own, so the playing set is chosen and bought separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat size pieces fit this board?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePieces with a king base of 40mm to 45mm.
