Wood and Epoxy Chessboards 

These wood species are known for their strength and beauty, making them the ideal choice for our chessboards. While these materials are proven and popular, we’re also open to exploring new species to meet the specific needs of our clients.

Our projects and realizations also include tables and chessboards made of exotic wood such as Mango and Acacia, you can see them in our store.


Wood and Epoxy Chessboards – Craftsmanship, Precision, and Beauty

At ChessboArt, we specialize in creating unique chessboards that blend traditional wood with modern materials like epoxy resin. Our chessboards combine craftsmanship, functionality, and timeless elegance, making them both a tool for playing and a decorative piece.

Epoxy Resin – Creativity and Functionality

Epoxy resin serves both a decorative and protective function in our projects. It allows us to create intricate patterns, lines, and inlays that wouldn’t be achievable with wood alone. The resin gives us the ability to create deep, vibrant colors and contrasts, adding a layer of creativity to the traditional chessboard.

With epoxy resin, we can also achieve full customization – unique artistic inlays and colorful fills can be added to match the chosen wood type. Depending on the client’s preferences, we can also add metallic elements or other decorative accents to further personalize the chessboard.

Surface Finishing – Natural and Durable

Protecting the wood is one of the most important steps in making a chessboard. While epoxy resin offers some protection in certain projects, the primary method we use to safeguard the wood is through oils and waxes, which highlight its natural beauty. This type of finish gives a warm, satin-like effect while maintaining the authenticity of the wood’s appearance.

Oils and waxes enhance the color depth of the wood and make the texture more tactile. Though this process is more labor-intensive, the result is well worth the effort. Oil-treated wood also becomes more resistant to dirt and mechanical damage.

In some cases, especially for projects that require a tougher finish, we use polyurethane varnish, which is harder than oil and wax. This option offers excellent protection, especially in high-traffic areas, and gives a glossy finish that adds a more striking appearance.

Customization of Finishing – Tailored to Client Expectations

Every project is different, which is why the finishing of our chessboards depends on the client’s expectations and preferences. We offer customization of the finish, allowing clients to choose between natural finishes with oils and waxes, glossy varnishes, or intricate designs involving epoxy resin and metallic elements.

We give clients complete freedom in selecting the wood type, finish, color scheme, and even the chessboard size. Each project is tailored to fit your interior, style, and intended function. Whether you want a simple, elegant chessboard or a more complex design with added elements, we ensure that your expectations are met.

Wood Selection – Exotic and Traditional Species

Wood is the essential material in our chessboards. Most of our projects use both traditional and exotic types of wood to achieve the ideal balance of aesthetics, functionality, and durability. Some of the wood types we use include:

• Ash – praised for its mechanical properties and beautiful, light color, perfect for classic, elegant projects.

• Oak – one of the hardest woods, ensuring exceptional durability and an elegant appearance, especially in rustic or traditional designs.

• American Walnut – a dark, noble wood that pairs perfectly with epoxy resin to create a striking contrast.

• Beech – a wood with a subtle color, ideal for light, minimalist projects that fit modern interiors.
