Dal Rossi Black / Erable Chess Board
If you like a chessboard to look like a chessboard, this is the one: strong black and white contrast and a deep matte finish the pieces glide across.

Black and white, the traditional look and the one most people picture. The black squares are stained wood; the white ones are erable, a pale maple with a soft quilted grain that shows through the matte varnish. The finish is low glare. Two sizes: Compact for a side table, Standard for the dining table.
- Strong contrast, so any pieces read clearly on it
- Matte finish, kind to the eyes over a long game
- Customers say brown pieces look as good on it as black
Best for anyone who wants a chessboard to look like a chessboard, and for pieces of any colour.

Very pleased with Chessworld with purchasing this 50cm Dal Rossi chessboard.
It arrived just over a weekend, and when I got it it was beautiful! Even with my Chocolate Brown and Wood pieces, the black and white looks amazing, Would highly recommend! Amazing for 150!
I was so impressed with the service I received from my recent purchase from Chess World, in seeking to buy a solid board I went straight back to them and purchased the Dal Rossi board. The board arrived within a couple of days. It's a beautiful board and I'm having great fun playing through games on it with the beautifully weighted pieces purchased a short time ago from Chess World. My experience with this company is that if you're thinking about buying anything chess-related, your first move should always be Chess World.
Excellent quality

I have rated this Board highly because what I received is exactly as described. It is well made given its price. The transaction went smoothly right from the ordering On-Line to delivery.
A really nice big board with a lovely finish. Made the perfect gift. Recipient was very happy with it.
Very pleasant purchase from ChessWorld… good communication and timely delivery
An excellent chess board - beautiful wood inlay and surface that lets pieces glide. Though not a solid board it’s solid enough to sit well during play. Delivery was quick and packaging substantial to ensure no damage in transit. Thanks Chess World - couldn’t be happier!
