Our Picks
Solid Wood Chess Board Coffee Table
Handmade from solid wood, this chess board coffee table measures 43” long by 27.5” wide and 19.6” high. The top is divided into two pieces that are hinged in the middle. Flip over one side to reveal a built-in chess board.
Designer Advice:
This beautiful chess coffee table hides two games below its wooden surface. On an everyday basis, it looks just like a standard coffee table. Only when you lift one side of its top do you see the chess board handpainted on the underside. Lifting the lid also reveals a handpainted backgammon game board that’s slightly recessed to allow you to roll the dice without losing them.
Solid Oak Chess Coffee Table
This coffee table with its built-in chess board is handcrafted and finished in a clear lacquer. The black chess squares are made from solid wingee wood, while the white squares are made from solid ash wood. The table is 32.5” long by 16.5” wide and 17.5” high and is topped with a 6mm piece of solid glass.
Designer Advice:
The combination of four types of wood and attention to detail makes this a collectible piece of furniture. The chess board coffee table is made from solid oak with beautiful inlays from solid cherry wood. You could also choose to have the inlays made from either walnut or mahogany if that suits your decor better. As well, a French polish finish is available, which gives the table a very high gloss surface with a deep color.
Coffee Table With Built In Chess Board
At 31.5” wide by 36” long and 18.5” high, this coffee table with a chess board top has fixed legs and comes fully assembled. The table is made from solid walnut, with maple and walnut playing squares. It ships in a custom-sized ⅜” plywood crate after being bubble-wrapped to protect it during transport.
Designer Advice:
If styling a coffee table isn’t your thing, consider how this chess coffee table can do the design work for you. Leave the chess pieces arranged on the board or place them in a small bowl that sits on top of the board until you’re ready to play the game. The borders of the table still have enough room to hold coffee cups or glasses of wine along with snack bowls.
Adjustable Chess Board Coffee Table
Featuring a hidden lift under the tabletop, this coffee table with its chess board top lets you adjust its height to suit your needs. The table measures 35.5” long by 24” wide and is 18” tall. The solid wood top is split in two and opens to reveal a handpainted chess board, backgammon game and a checker’s board.
Designer Advice:
This unique design of this chess coffee table can easily become a room’s focal point. Four black iron wheels support the table. The wood table has a distressed cream finish, and the games are handpainted in a dark brown color. We love the casual vibe of this table; perfect for a country or Farmhouse style or even just for a casual decor style.
Chess Coffee Table
This chess coffee table is made from reclaimed wood. It’s treated, finished, and covered with engraved–beer bottle glass and a final coat of epoxy resin. Choose from a smooth or textured tabletop finish. The chess board design can be created in any of the 19 colors available.
Antiqued Chess Coffee Table
Small enough to use as a chess side table, this wooden coffee table is 20.5” square and 19.6” tall. It’s handmade from pine wood, painted in antiqued black and white and finished with a protective varnish. The table edges are free-formed and add to the whimsical style of the table.
