Diverging from common industry practices, the pieces in the Chessnut Wooden Series are not sourced from local suppliers using commonplace materials. We believe the ultimate chess experience begins with the first touch between the fingers and a piece. Therefore, we turned to India, a hub for chess piece craftsmanship, to introduce original, hand-carved pieces. Each piece embodies a unique artisan spirit, where the marks of the carving tool and the natural wood grain represent a warmth and soul that mass manufacturing cannot replicate.
