The Ferrer Queen's Gambit Chess Board is the officially licensed board from the award-winning Netflix series, handcrafted in Spain by Rechapados Ferrer — the manufacturer behind the sets that appeared on screen throughout the production. Available in 40cm and 50cm, it is sold without pieces for players who want the iconic board to complement pieces they already own.
The board pairs black tulipie dark squares with natural wood veneer light squares and Ferrer's signature matte anti-reflection finish. Both sizes carry the same timber combination and construction standard as the Queen's Gambit complete sets, giving players access to the on-screen board in a standalone format suited to a wider range of piece collections.
Rechapados Ferrer has been producing boards in La Garriga near Barcelona since the late 1950s, supplying major international tournaments and chess brands worldwide. The Queen's Gambit board is among the most recognised they have produced, and the standalone version maintains every element of that quality.
Most chess boards tied to film or television productions are decorative pieces built for display rather than play. The Ferrer Queen's Gambit Chess Board is different — it is built to the same construction standard as Ferrer's tournament and collector-grade boards, with the licensed design applied to a playing surface that performs as well as it looks.
The black tulipie dark squares produce one of the sharpest natural contrasts available in a handcrafted chess board. Against the natural wood veneer light squares, the difference between the two sides of the board is immediate and easy to read across a full game. The matte finish eliminates glare without diminishing the natural character of either timber.
For players who want a complete set with board and pieces included, the Ferrer Queen's Gambit Official Chess Set is the natural starting point. For those comparing standalone boards across the broader chess boards collection, the Queen's Gambit board is the most distinctive licensed option in the Ferrer range.
The Ferrer Queen's Gambit Chess Board is not a commemorative piece — it is a proper handcrafted playing board made by the same manufacturer who supplied the production. The black tulipie dark squares are selected for consistency of grain and tone across the full playing surface, and the matte anti-reflection finish provides the smooth, tactile quality that serious play demands.
At 13mm board height, the board sits flat and stable on any surface and does not shift during play. Both the 40cm and 50cm versions reflect the same construction standard, with square sizes suited to a range of Staunton piece heights.
The 40cm board has 40mm squares, suited to Staunton pieces with a king height of around 60mm to 78mm. It is a strong choice for players with a compact set of pieces or those who want a board that fits comfortably in a smaller space.
The 50cm board has 50mm squares, suited to pieces with a king height of around 80mm to 95mm. It is the more generous playing surface and the better fit for standard-sized Staunton pieces. As a general guide, the king base diameter should be roughly 75 to 80 percent of the square size for the best visual balance on the board.

The Ferrer Queen's Gambit Chess Board is one of the most striking playing surfaces in our range at Sterling Chess. The black tulipie and natural wood veneer contrast is sharp and distinctive without being artificial, and the matte finish plays beautifully under any lighting. For players who want the on-screen board from the series — without the pieces — this is exactly what it is, made by exactly who made it for the production.

As a general guide, the king base diameter should be approximately 75 to 80 percent of the square size for the best visual balance and playability.
