Why We Don’t Offer Discounts (And Why That’s Good for You)

🎯 Discounts & Pricing

Yes – we know. Every store has a sales section, a big red banner, a 20% code waiting in your inbox. So why not us?

Well, we’ve thought about it. And we’d like to explain why you won’t find discounts on ChessboArt products – and why we hope you’ll appreciate that choice.


🤝 We don’t discount because we don’t inflate

Our prices reflect the real cost of what we create – the materials, the time, and the craftsmanship behind every board or table.

  • No artificial markups
  • No seasonal “fake sales”
  • No pressure to wait for the next deal

We’re committed to transparent, stable pricing. The kind you don’t need to chase.


🌳 Premium materials, no shortcuts

Some materials we use – like American walnut – are up to 4× more expensive than common hardwoods like oak. And that’s before the real work begins.

We only source wood locally (ash, oak, sycamore), and exotic wood from FSC-certified suppliers.


⏳ Handmade takes time – and so does delivery

And yes, we use CNC machines, milling machines, and lasers... but where simple and repeatable work is required. However, these still won't replace the hand of a craftsman. We simply collaborate. However, remember that over 60% of the time working on a chess set is entirely handmade.

We don't mass-produce. Each ChessboArt product is individually made, often to order. Therefore, order processing times may vary:

  • 2–3 weeks if the product is in progress or ready
  • 6–8 weeks if we’re starting from raw wood

We encourage early orders – especially if you're planning a gift or need delivery by a specific date. We don’t rush the process, because some things shouldn't be rushed.


❤️ When you order from us, you support more than a product

This may not matter to everyone, but for us, it’s essential: when you choose ChessboArt, you’re supporting a real passion – for chess, for wood, and for things made to last.

We build each piece with the hope that it brings joy today – and remains beautiful, useful and meaningful for generations to come.

We believe:

  • Good craftsmanship doesn't age
  • Real quality appreciates over time
  • And a handmade chessboard isn’t just a purchase – it’s a legacy

🙏 Thank you

You won’t find discounts here. But we hope you’ve found something else:
