Scorching darkens the timber itself instead of coating it, so you keep the grain, you get a warmer brown-black than a dye gives, and there is no surface colour to wear off the high points in ten years. That is a real durability advantage, not a cosmetic one. The board is a sensible match at 55mm squares, generous enough for a set with a 78mm bishop, though at 13mm it is a veneer playing surface rather than furniture. If you want the Zagreb knight and you want the set to still look right after a decade of use, this is the version to buy.\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-Fh0yQe5Rvy  page-crafter-div-container\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Burnt boxwood pieces set up on the included 55cm poplar and white erable board\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0945\/5507\/9024\/files\/4_6147db6d-52f1-4313-b0f1-283188745edb.jpg?v=1787515255\u0026amp;width=1000\" class=\"page-crafter-image-base-class page_crafter_grid_media-Fh0yQe5Rvy\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"SPACER-Ce5qBf9Dvl\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"height: 20px;\" class=\"page-crafter-block\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"HEADING-Jn3sVm4Aof\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"page-crafter-h2 page_crafter_heading-Jn3sVm4Aof\"\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"ACCORDIAN-Ck7dVh9Pbl\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_crafter_accordian-Ck7dVh9Pbl page-crafter-accordian-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat size is the board?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e55cm x 55cm with 55mm squares, 13mm thick and around 3,044g, in poplar and white erable with a matte finish.
