Handcrafted Pine & Merbau Chess set– Rustic Timber Elegance

$250.00

Bring timeless craftsmanship to your home with this handcrafted pine and merbau Chess set, finished in a smooth, clear polyurethane that highlights the natural grain and rich tones of Australian timber.
Each square is carefully joined to create a striking contrast between light pine and deep merbau, making it a stunning centrepiece for play or display. Perfect for family game nights, gifting, or adding rustic charm to your décor — a true statement of handmade quality and design.

Each chess piece tells the story of the board it stands upon. These unique hand-cast resin chess pieces are crafted using real timber shavings collected from the making of the pine and merbau chess boards — carefully suspended in crystal-clear resin to preserve their natural beauty.

The result is a stunning blend of craftsmanship and sustainability — every piece shimmering with warm, earthy tones, intricate wood grain fragments. Designed to complement your handcrafted timber board, these pieces are both elegant and deeply connected to their origins.

Perfect for collectors, artisans, and chess lovers who appreciate the artistry of materials reborn.

Proudly crafted by Alex’s Artisanal Workshop – bringing nature’s story into your home.
