This is a beautiful example of marquetry. They don't make them like this any more. Lots of different woods, hours of fun just in gazing at it. And we've put a fresh coat of wax on to bring up the lustre.

The drawback is that the table has bowed a bit over time, so it's a bit lower on two sides. Have a look at this in the photos. Not noticeable to look at, but you might notice during your chess game. We have discounted this otherwise exquisite table because of this.

Solid wood throughout. Dimensions: 68cm high, 77 cm across.

And as a bonus freebie, we are throwing in a glass chess set we have just got in because it fits it so well. This is the set pictured. Note the set also comes with glass chequers pieces and a little glass board too.
