Adding Texture
with Wooden Chess Sets
A quality wooden chess set will add texture and character to any
room they are placed in. The finishes available on wooden chess sets
can be dramatic or subtle, shiny or muted and the natural wood grain
that shows through on a natural finish can be just the right touch
to the decor of your home furnishings.
The one most important aspect to owning a good wooden chess set is
that the pieces are more sturdy and durable than a plastic chess
set. Plastic chess pieces can break after several uses and while
marble and glass sets are strong and durable if you drop a piece on
the floor it will more than likely shatter or break.
Another popular reason for choosing wood for your chess set is the
feel and texture of the wooden pieces. Unlike the cold feel of glass
and marble (especially in the cold winter months) the wooden chess
pieces have a warmer and earthy feel to them. If you are an avid
chess player a good wooden chess set will be an attractive and
welcome addition to your game room for year round enjoyment.
