{"product_id":"walnut-burl-maple-chess-set-drawers","title":"Walnut Burl and Maple Chess Set with Drawers","description":"\u003cp\u003eWalnut burl is not manufactured, it is found. It is the part of the trunk where the fibres curl in on themselves and draw thick, moving veins that the varnish brings out. Every board is therefore unique: yours will never have exactly the same figure as another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe light squares are maple, cut sharply against the deep brown of the walnut and ringed by a fine marquetry inlay. At the four corners, carved bronze-finish columns support the board and give the whole thing the line of an antique piece of furniture, without ever tipping into pastiche.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pieces are zinc alloy, heavy in the hand, with an aged copper and silver finish built up through successive polishing. They do not shine: they have that matte patina that catches light instead of throwing it back. Each one is felted underneath, to glide without marking the wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd when the game is over, everything goes back in. Two drawers, one per side, with a moulded slot for every piece. Pull the brass knob, put the pieces away, close it up. Nothing rolls, nothing goes missing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wood \u0026 Wit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58536312504664,"sku":null,"price":269.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1015\/7123\/2088\/files\/hf_20260917_112018_6fd02fef-95d0-4d64-892d-23ec62068306.png?v=1790080877","url":"https:\/\/woodandwit.com\/products\/walnut-burl-maple-chess-set-drawers","provider":"Wood \u0026 Wit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
