Found this at the restore by my house for $250 it has dings and scratches but I have no idea how old it is or any thing like that. I do know that its hand made and pretty dam heavy. I already had the pieces.
That is VERY cool !!! Those tables always remind one of Paul Morphy's day IMHO.![morphy.jpg]()
Now I just need to shuffle some stuff around and make space for it and find some chairs to go with it, a rustic looking wood clock, maybe even some new pieces if anyone has a suggestion on what would complement it.
Check out this chess table on their page

No I think I'll just leave it as it is. I like to drink and smoke while I play chess so it will actually be pretty nice not to have to worry about messing it up.Besides I'm not very crafty and don't exactly want to spend more money to get someone else to refurbish it.
Beautiful. Absolute Score! Not in the least bit jealous

Yeah, the forums here have always been iffy as to whether something will show up as a link. Mine showed up that time first try, but most of the time I've had to go back and edit posts to fiddle with the spacing. Not so sure if that's as much the case since the change to the new version, but it's always been a PITA for me.
@Quasimorohy I'm going to blame it on my copy and pasting the link from my phone , but you got it on here for me so it all worked out.
Beautiful, authentic looking table. Congrats. I'm a big fan of chess tables, not their prices though. Hard to find one with big enough squares imo.
Wow, I'll give you $251 for it. Nice find!
Thanks, AK. I have a chess table with an insert that is 24 x 24. This allows me to use all of my 23.75" square boards in it, and I have had a fellow on Etsy make me a very nice custom insert as well. It's a thought, if you're so inclined.
I apologize in advance if this is not the place to post this. It I was trying to see if anyone could help me find a specific chess set. I have a photo of it. Just now sure who the maker is or what the set name is.
