The board measures 58.4cm across with 60mm squares, ebony on the dark side against maple (Acer oblongum) on the light, and a sheesham frame runs around the outside of the chequer. Eight squares of 60mm make the playing grid 48cm across. Sheesham is the golden rose wood the border takes its warmer colour from, and it sets the chequer apart from whatever the board is standing on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe proportions make this a specialist rather than a general purpose surface. Sixty millimetre squares are cut for large sets, and the recommended king base runs from 45mm to 52mm.

The two agree on every dimension that matters: 58.4cm across, 60mm squares, 22mm through, around 5,500g, and the same 45mm to 52mm recommendation for the base of the king. If you have already measured your pieces against one of them, the answer carries straight over to the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat changes is the timber and the frame. Ebony is the darker and denser of the two dark squares, close to black under a lamp with very little figure to read, where bud rosewood is a red brown that shows its grain. Against maple, ebony gives the harder contrast of the two, which is the easier board to read a crowded position on and the plainer one to look at between games. The sheesham border is the other difference you see immediately, because it puts a warm frame around the chequer instead of running the squares out to the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf 58.4cm is more board than your table can carry, the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sterlingchess.com.au\/products\/ebony-maple-53cm-chess-board-with-55mm-squares\" title=\"Ebony And Maple 53cm Chess Board\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e53.3cm ebony and maple board with 55mm squares\u003c\/a\u003e covers the same idea at a smaller scale on 55mm squares.

Two sets that stand the same height can carry bases eight or ten millimetres apart, and it is the base that has to share the square with its neighbours. This board is cut for a base of 45mm to 52mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a 60mm square that puts the widest part of the king at roughly three quarters to seven eighths of the square. It is a deliberate proportion. Below it the pieces look stranded in the middle of each square, and above it the bases of two neighbours start to touch, which is what makes a crowded middlegame hard to read at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe natural match is the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sterlingchess.com.au\/products\/noble-bridle-series-ebony-123mm-chess-pieces\" title=\"Noble Bridle Series Ebony 123mm Chess Pieces\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNoble Bridle Series at 123mm\u003c\/a\u003e, which stands on a 48mm base and is cut for 60mm squares, so it lands in the middle of the window on both counts.

Its own recommendation is 55mm squares, so on these it sits with more air around each piece, which reads well if the board is left set up as much as it is played on. A common 95mm club set will physically fit but will look undersized here, because patterns at that height are usually turned for 50mm to 55mm squares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"TWO_COLUMN_GRID-Xt0rSe1Rqi\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-two-column-grid page_crafter_two_column_grid-Xt0rSe1Rqi\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h3 page_crafter_two_column_heading-Xt0rSe1Rqi page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eThe notation option\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_grid_plain_text-Xt0rSe1Rqi     page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe notation option carries the coordinates around the playing area, files a to h along one axis and ranks 1 to 8 up the other. Everything else about the board is unchanged. It is the same 58.4cm board on 60mm squares, the same 22mm section, the same 5,500g, the same ebony and maple chequer inside the same sheesham frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoordinates earn their place the moment you start recording games. Writing a score sheet, replaying an annotated game from a book, following an engine line on a screen, or coaching someone who is still working out where f5 is all get faster when the board answers the question for you instead of making you count across from the corner. For anyone working through openings at home that is a small friction removed a few hundred times an evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plain board is there for the opposite preference. A board left out as furniture between games looks calmer without lettering around it, and neither option plays differently from the other.

Measure the table before ordering rather than after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce it is in place the weight works for you. Around 5,500g absorbs a knocked table without the position shifting, which is the practical argument for a 22mm section on a board that will be left set up between games. It also means unpacking is a two hand job at the door. Keep it out of direct sun and away from heat vents, wipe it down with a dry soft cloth, and stand drinks somewhere else. As with any handmade item the finished weight can vary by up to 10 percent either way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"TWO_COLUMN_GRID-Al5nNy8Iwc\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-two-column-grid page_crafter_two_column_grid-Al5nNy8Iwc\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h3 page_crafter_two_column_heading-Al5nNy8Iwc page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eOur expert take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_grid_plain_text-Al5nNy8Iwc     page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reason to buy this board is that it is cut for pieces most boards are not: 60mm squares and a 45mm to 52mm base recommendation put it squarely under the tall ebony patterns, and 22mm of section at around 5,500g gives it the mass to sit under them without looking outmatched. The sheesham frame is the other half of the appeal, because it finishes the edge in a way a bare chequer does not. Two honest notes. It is a large, heavy object that wants a permanent home and a table near a metre across, so it is the wrong purchase if the board has to be packed away after every game. And 60mm squares are not a general fit, so a 95mm club set bought to go with it will look undersized on arrival. Buy it if you already own large pieces, or if you are choosing board and pieces together and want the board to be the part you never replace.\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-Al5nNy8Iwc  page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"The 22mm section of the ebony and maple sheesham border chess board\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0945\/5507\/9024\/files\/ebony_chessboard_sheesham_border_notation_14__1.jpg?v=1788169558\u0026amp;width=1000\" class=\"page-crafter-image-base-class page_crafter_grid_media-Al5nNy8Iwc\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"SPACER-Qu2oMq5Kmo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"height: 20px;\" class=\"page-crafter-block\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"HEADING-Wv3cNu2Irb\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"page-crafter-h2 page_crafter_heading-Wv3cNu2Irb\"\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"ACCORDIAN-Go0gPg4Bup\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_accordian-Go0gPg4Bup 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, in whichever option you select.
