About Our Boards
Our checkerboards are NOT crafted from exotic woods but mostly from common pine. Our checker boards are NOT inlaid with mosaic borders. Our checkerboards are NOT made of leather, NOT marble nor exotic stone. Our checkerboards are NOT imported, though we do not investigate or know the origin of some of the materials we may use. Many of our checkerboards are made to look old, but they are NOT antique. And, we do not sell games pieces, checkers or draughts.

About Our Shapes and Sizes
Our standard checkerboard shapes are the 17 1/4" x 17 1/4" Square and the 20”w x 17 1/4”h Rectangle. These sizes are square edged. The Pentagon and Colonial shapes are cut from the 17 1/4" Square, however the edges are eased to a 1/2" radius, as are the edges on the 24” tall Headstone and Oval shapes. The wood grain will always be moving left to right unless otherwise directed. Dimensions might vary by fractions of an inch.

Please note: We do charge for custom colors, but only what the dealers charge us for the paint. Also, all of our checkerboard items are made from natural wood. This means that natural processes such as warping, twisting, shrinking, swelling and cracking may occur. We feel that since we are creating pieces that are made to look older than they actually are, that the natural processes which may occur, only add to the charm of the piece itself. Also, we create our pieces as decorative wall art, though they have the look of functional game boards. We do not ship game pieces and recommend that the boards not be used as toys for young children.
