The Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory 61cm Chess Table is the boutique luxury chess table in our range. A genuinely distinctive piece that combines a 51mm FIDE-standard tournament playing surface with heritage Indian inlay artwork and a round tabletop design. Each table is handcrafted from premium Golden Rosewood with an acrylic ivory playing surface, and finished with hand-carved elephant motifs and floral vines along the border. Traditional Indian inlay work that only a handful of master artisans still practice today.
Where most premium chess tables sit firmly in the classical furniture design language of the Western tradition, this table brings something different. The round tabletop is unlike any other table in our range. The hand-carved elephant and floral vine inlay work along the border is a genuinely rare form of Indian heritage craftsmanship, executed to a standard that reflects decades of artisan experience. The 25" (63.5cm) table height is the most ergonomic in the range for extended seated play. The result is a chess table that reads immediately as something apart. A heritage art piece as much as a serious tournament playing surface.
For chess players who want a distinctive centrepiece rather than a conventional chess table, for collectors who appreciate traditional heritage craftsmanship, and for buyers looking for a gift or décor purchase with genuine artistry alongside serious playability, this table is one of a kind in our collection.
Sterling Chess carries a curated range of premium chess tables, each with a distinct character and use case.
The 61cm Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory Round Chess Table (this table) is the boutique luxury round chess table with heritage Indian inlay artwork on the border, 51mm FIDE-standard squares, and acrylic ivory light squares. Best for collectors who appreciate heritage art, buyers who want a distinctive centrepiece rather than a conventional chess table, and players who value a round format for a compact space.
The Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory 53cm Chess Table is the compact square-format tournament table sharing the same acrylic ivory light squares and Golden Rosewood construction, with 53mm squares and a streamlined four-leg design. Best for buyers who want the high-contrast acrylic ivory playing surface in a more conventional square-format table.
The Golden Rosewood & Maple 56cm Chess Table is the compact square-format table with wood-on-wood construction, two storage drawers, and hand-turned legs. Best for buyers who prefer the classical wood-on-wood aesthetic.
The Golden Rosewood & Maple 58cm Tournament Chess Table is the tournament-grade wood-on-wood square-format table with 57mm FIDE-standard squares and two opposing storage drawers. Best for serious tournament players using larger pieces.
The Chessmasters Series 76cm Chess Table is the premium rectangular workspace-style chess table with wide accessory borders. Best for serious players who want a chess table that doubles as a full chess workspace.
All five tables share the same handcrafted Golden Rosewood construction and refined furniture-grade finish. The 61cm Round stands apart as the artistic and heritage-driven option in the range.
The defining feature of the 61cm Round is the hand-carved traditional Indian inlay artwork along the border of the round tabletop. Master artisans hand-sculpt elephant motifs and floral vines directly into the solid Golden Rosewood, using a decorative technique that has been passed down through generations of Indian craftsmen but is now practised by only a handful of master artisans in the world.
The elephant motif is a longstanding symbol in Indian art of strength, wisdom, and good fortune. Appropriate imagery for a chess table given the game's own associations with strategic depth and considered play. The floral vine borders are executed with the delicate detail work that distinguishes genuine traditional inlay from mass-produced decorative pieces. Each carving takes hours of skilled hand work to complete, and no two tables are identical. The subtle variations in the inlay execution are the hallmarks of authentic hand-crafted heritage art.
Importantly, the inlay work sits entirely on the border of the tabletop. The 51mm chess playing surface itself is clean, uncluttered, and fully tournament-grade. The decorative appeal of the border complements the playing field without ever interfering with serious chess play.
The round tabletop format is unique in our chess table range and genuinely uncommon in premium chess tables generally. Round tables have several practical advantages for chess play: no corners for pieces to catch on during rapid or blitz play, easier movement around the table when studying the board from different angles, and better spatial fit in rooms where a square or rectangular chess table would feel out of proportion. The round format also creates a more social playing atmosphere. No fixed player positions, no visual hierarchy across the board.
Beyond practicality, the round format is visually distinctive. It draws the eye differently from a square or rectangular chess table, and it integrates naturally with round dining tables, sitting rooms, and boutique-style furniture arrangements where a hard-cornered chess table might feel out of place. For buyers who want a chess table that reads as a considered design object rather than functional equipment, the round format is a genuine differentiator.
The chess playing surface uses acrylic ivory for the light squares and Golden Rosewood for the dark squares. The same high-contrast material combination as the Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory 53cm Chess Table. Acrylic ivory has a cleaner, brighter white tone than natural woods like Maple or Boxwood, producing a higher-contrast playing surface where pieces stand out more clearly. For extended play sessions and analysis, the higher contrast reduces visual fatigue and improves piece recognition.
The Golden Rosewood dark squares complement the acrylic ivory beautifully. The warm honey-brown timber contrasts with the cool bright ivory to produce a board with clear visual hierarchy: the pieces read cleanly, the alternating squares are unambiguous, and the whole playing field has a considered visual balance.
The 25" table height is the most ergonomic in our chess table range for extended seated play. It sits lower than the standard 27" tables, which suits deeper seating positions, sitting room chairs, and lounge chairs that are lower than typical dining chairs. For chess players who prefer to sink into a comfortable chair for a long analysis session rather than sit upright at a dining chair, the lower table height is genuinely more comfortable.
The 8.6kg total weight gives the table stable planted presence during play without being unwieldy for occasional repositioning. The solid Sheesham construction supports the tabletop firmly on its base, delivering wobble-free performance during rapid or blitz play.
The 51mm playing surface is designed for premium Staunton chess pieces with a 35-42mm king base diameter, typically pieces in the 85-95mm (3.5" to 3.75") king height range. For a chess table with this level of heritage craftsmanship, we recommend pairing with premium hand-carved Staunton pieces that complement the artistic character of the inlay work. Browse the chess pieces collection at Sterling Chess for compatible tournament-grade options.
Larger pieces with a base above 42mm may crowd the squares; smaller pieces with a base below 35mm will feel visually loose on the board.
The Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory 61cm Chess Table is one of the most distinctive chess tables we carry. A boutique luxury piece that stands apart from every other table in our chess table range. The round tabletop format is genuinely uncommon in premium chess tables, the hand-carved elephant and floral vine inlay work along the border is heritage craftsmanship of the kind that is becoming increasingly rare, and the acrylic ivory playing surface delivers the visual clarity that serious chess play benefits from. For collectors who appreciate traditional artistry as much as tournament-grade playability, for buyers looking for a distinctive centrepiece rather than conventional furniture, and for gift purchases with genuine artistic character alongside serious chess credentials, this is the table.

The border of the round tabletop features hand-carved elephant motifs and floral vines executed by master artisans using traditional Indian inlay techniques. This decorative craft has been passed down through generations of Indian craftsmen but is now practised by only a handful of master artisans in the world. Each table is unique. The subtle variations in the inlay execution are hallmarks of authentic hand-crafted heritage art.
No. The inlay artwork sits entirely on the border of the tabletop. The 51mm chess playing surface itself is clean, uncluttered, and fully tournament-grade. The decorative border complements the playing field without ever interfering with serious chess play.
The 51mm squares are designed for premium Staunton chess pieces with a 35-42mm king base diameter. Browse the full chess pieces collection at Sterling Chess for compatible tournament-grade options.
The 61cm Round is the only round-format table in the range and the only table with heritage Indian inlay artwork. It shares the acrylic ivory light squares with the 53cm square-format table but differs in tabletop shape, decorative border, and table height (25" versus 27.25"). The other tables in the range use wood-on-wood construction (Golden Rosewood with Maple light squares) in various square and rectangular formats.
Yes. The 51mm squares meet FIDE chess equipment guidelines for tournament play, and the round format has practical advantages for rapid and blitz play. No corners for pieces to catch on, and easier movement around the table when studying the board from different angles.
The 25" (63.5cm) table height is designed for ergonomic seated play in deeper seating positions, sitting room chairs, and lounge chairs that are lower than typical dining chairs. This suits chess players who prefer a comfortable seated position for extended analysis sessions rather than sitting upright at a dining chair. The other chess tables in our range are 27" tall for standard dining chair use.
The table ships with the legs detached for safe, damage-free transport. Attaching the legs to the base is straightforward and requires only basic assembly.
No. The table is supplied without chess pieces. This allows buyers to pair the table with their preferred tournament-grade piece set from the chess pieces collection.
The Golden Rosewood construction is finished for long-term durability, but as with any premium hardwood furniture, we recommend keeping the table out of direct sunlight for extended periods and away from radiators or heating vents that can dry the timber. The acrylic ivory playing surface can be wiped clean with a soft dry cloth. Take particular care around the inlay carvings. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners and abrasive materials.
Yes. The distinctive round format, heritage inlay artwork, and tournament-grade playability make this table one of the strongest gift purchases in our chess table range. It works equally well for chess players and for buyers who value distinctive heritage craftsmanship.
Each Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory Round Chess Table is handcrafted by skilled artisans, including the master artisans who execute the traditional Indian inlay artwork on the border.
