FAQs

Chess tables gained significant popularity during the 18th and 19th centuries as parlour games became a staple of polite society and domestic entertainment.

Master cabinetmakers typically utilised dense hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, and walnut, often incorporating contrasting timbers like boxwood and ebony for the board squares.

Authenticity is determined by examining hand-cut dovetail joints, traditional polish finishes such as shellac or French polish, hand-turned wooden components, and natural material ageing.

Such pieces function effectively as focal points in studies or living areas, pairing traditional craftsmanship with contemporary seating to create a balanced, eclectic aesthetic.

Maintain wood longevity by keeping items away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying traditional microcrystalline wax.
