Size No 5+ (without notation) mahogany/sycamore

This No. 5+ chessboard without notation, mahogany/sycamore intarsia is a wooden chessboard made for tournament-style play, with a clean borderless layout and a strong contrast between the squares. The mahogany and sycamore inlay gives it a classic look while keeping the board easy to read during play.

Its 52 × 52 cm format and 55 mm squares make it a comfortable match for medium to larger pieces. It is suitable for pieces in the 3.5"–3.75" range, including popular tournament sets such as Staunton No. 5 and Staunton No. 6. The lack of notation around the edge will appeal to players who prefer a plain chessboard.

Practical for regular play

Four pads on the underside help keep the board steady and protect the surface beneath it. That makes it a reliable choice for use on a hard, level table or desk, whether you are playing at home, in a formal game or in everyday practice.
