We can add a custom engraving just for you — like a company logo or an anniversary message.
We also create resin inlays and wood combinations (intarsia).
Simply include your request in the order notes, or email us later with your order number.
We’ll stay in touch throughout the process.
Every piece is made, serviced, or prepared by hand — at a craftsman's pace, not an assembly line.
Exact timing for this specific item is detailed above. As a general guide: Ready to Ship pieces typically leave within 3–8 business days, and boards built through our Configurator take around 6 weeks to make. If you need something for a specific date, just email us — we'll always tell you honestly whether we can make it happen
We ship our chessboards and clocks worldwide from Poland, with extreme care. Our pieces have safely reached collectors in the USA, Singapore, Argentina, UK, Norway, Ukraine, and throughout Europe. Every order is packed securely to arrive at your doorstep in perfect condition.
Your exact shipping cost is calculated automatically at checkout — no need to contact us first. For a growing number of destinations, we've also taken care of import duties on our side, so what you see at checkout really is the final price, with nothing more to pay when your order arrives.
Where this isn't yet the case, standard customs rules may apply depending on your country — this is shown clearly before you pay, never as a surprise later. If you're ever unsure, or ordering something unusually large or heavy, just ask us — we're happy to check and confirm before you order.
We strive for 100% satisfaction.
As an art workshop, we want you to love your chess set. However, please note the distinction between our products:

Choose between an authentic “as-is” vintage clock (20–50–100 years old, with honest wear) or a refreshed, gift-ready look. Our refinishing focuses on the exterior wooden housing: careful cleaning, light/medium sanding, and a durable oil or wax finish that brings out the grain. Matured wood naturally deepens in tone over decades — oil/wax enhances that character.
Also known as a chess timer; this service works on the exterior wood only.
This is a woodworking/cabinetry service, not watchmaking.
This product covers clocks purchased from our store — we know their construction and finishes. If you want us to refinish your own clock, ship it for evaluation first; we’ll confirm feasibility and price.
Original stamps (e.g., Koopman warranty dates) and distinctive markings are part of history — we avoid removing them unless you explicitly request it.
As-is: keeps patina and all period marks; great for collectors and history lovers. Refreshed: ideal for gifts and display — looks clean and vivid, often “better than new” because oil/wax lets the now-matured wood shine while staying natural.
Base engravings look best on a freshly refreshed surface.

Oil/wax naturally deepens tone and highlights grain. That’s expected and part of the refreshed look. We follow your patina preference.
We try not to. We mask openings and glass before sanding/finishing. This service focuses on the exterior wooden housing only.
Possibly. Please send it in for evaluation so we can assess wood condition, access and risk before confirming scope and price.
No — that’s outside this service and requires a separate quote. Our work here is woodworking/cabinetry.
