About Walnut & Sycamore Chess Board №5

Walnut & Sycamore Chess Board №5 is a tournament-style wooden board designed for serious play and comfortable spacing. Finished in walnut and sycamore marquetry, it delivers a classic high-contrast look that pairs well with both traditional and modern piece sets.

With an overall size of 52 × 52 cm and 55 × 55 mm squares, this board sits in the sweet spot for medium-to-large tournament pieces—especially 3.5'' to 3.75'' kings, Staunton No. 5, and many Staunton No. 6 sets. It includes alphanumeric notation for training and game recording, and the underside has four felt pads to help the board stay stable while protecting the table surface.
