Are there chess shops in Wales?
You might find one NOS?
I have two Jaques maple sycamore from 2005ish. I actually hounded Jaques now no more. So best to you
Start going to boot sales. I like that OS one would trade for it if it weren’t for the Atlantic Ocean. Good luck 🤞🏻
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a specific style of board and am hoping you may able to help. I would like to buy a board which fits the following criteria:
So for example I would like squares like this: Italian Antiqued Ochre Chess Board – Official Staunton, but I don't like the black frame on this board. I'd prefer a frame more akin to this 1849 Cooke Chessmen, Solid Wood Framed Chessboard & Mahogany Box – Official Staunton
I've seen a number of genuine antique boards online, e.g. here and here but these are simply too expensive, and I expect much of their price comes from being their age! I'd be perfectly happy with a completely new board, but just in this style. Does anyone know of any being sold online?
