About this product
 
This is the most popular size in Drueke's line of classic walnut and maple chessboards. This solid wood chessboard is made of walnut and maple squares that interlock perfectly. The precise quality of these boards is definitely hard to match. There is a 2.5" walnut perimeter with beveled edges. Between the perimeter and the squares is a 1/8" groove finishing the board in style. To confirm the high quality and craftsmanship in manufacturing this chess board, it can be inverted and played using the underside with noticeable matching quality. This board has a fine furniture finish.

Specifications:
  • Board size: 21" with 2" squares and 2.5" border.
  • Piece recommendation: Drueke 3 3/4" Rosewood set (special combo price)
This set is also available in a complete matching package of chessboard, pieces and walnut box in another special combo package.

Beautiful, but large & unwieldy August 29, 2007
Reviewer: Jeremy Zorns from Round Lake Beach, IL United States  
I wouldn't go so far as to call this board rugged. Since it is not veneered, like most other wooden chess boards, the occasional ding will not ruin it. However, it is heavy & large; not easy to carry aroudn without banging it up. I had my grandma make a bag for mine, which makes it easier, but I still bang it on doorways and whatnot. This board is best used as a stay at home board or special occasion board. The walnut is beautiful. That it is made of solid blocks is very cool.

I do not like the Drueke chessmen as well as the House of Staunton ones for a similar price, so I just bought the board.

Somehow, when I play a game on this board, I have a warmer feeling inside. I just am happy the whole time, even when I'm losing.

Someone who really likes chess owes it to himself to get a really nice wooden set & board at some point. It just classes up the whole experience.
