A New Chapter in Our Signature ChessboArt800 Line

The ChessboArt800 is the board we're known for — and this is its most minimalist expression yet. This is the first and only board we've made without the traditional thin strip separating the playing field from the margin. The checkered pattern flows directly into the frame, creating a clean, uninterrupted look that's quietly striking on the wall. It's a small structural change with a big visual effect.

Because it's built from solid, naturally-grained wood, this exact combination of grain, tone, and pattern can never be exactly reproduced. Only one piece is available — once it's gone, this specific board is gone.

Materials & Construction

Light squares are crafted from heartwood ash — the denser, more richly grained inner wood of the ash tree, chosen for its warmth and character over the paler sapwood typically used elsewhere. Dark squares are solid American walnut, prized for its deep, chocolate-brown tone and fine grain. The frame is solid walnut throughout, giving the whole piece a cohesive, gallery-grade finish.

Board format: 800 × 800 mm — our flagship size, built for real presence on the wall while remaining fully playable, move by move, square by square.

Chess Pieces — Shown for Reference, Sold Separately

The price above is for the board only. Some photos show it styled with chess pieces simply to help you visualize the full set — these are not included. Complete your set with:

• Solid Wood Magnetic Chess Pieces — for a warm, classic look
• Plywood Magnetic Chess Pieces — with resin-filled black pieces for striking contrast

Two Ways to Play

The photos show this board styled two ways — with our wood chess pieces for a warm, classic look, and with our resin-detail plywood pieces, where the black pieces are filled with resin for depth and contrast while the white pieces remain natural plywood. Both pairings work beautifully against the ash-and-walnut board.

Design Philosophy

We've built dozens of ChessboArt800 boards, and each one explores a different balance between tradition and minimalism. This edition pushes that furthest: no visual buffer, no extra line — just the board and the frame, meeting directly. It's the kind of detail you notice on the second look, not the first.
