Summerville-New England Chess Boards?
Sort:
Good news! Summerville is still in business. Their website is up and running today.

Speaking of Summerville boards, I am currently considering getting my dad a Monk style board and a good set of pieces for his birthday. Could anyone recommend whether Summerville is a decent option or I should choose a less pricier board for him? Btw, I am new to this site so I'm unsure if this is the right place for my post.
Drueke solid wood chess boards are well known even revered....hand made....walnut and maple....various sizes.....
You can apparently purchase direct from Drueke on eBay...

Does anyone know what's happened to Summerville-New England? Their website isn't working and their Face Book page hasn't been updated since May.
They made some great looking boards. I had my eye on one of their 'floating' Monk boards and was saving my pennies. It would be a real shame to lose another U.S. chess manufacturer.
