Chess table

A chess board is usually integral to the table top and often two drawers are provided to hold the pieces when not in use.

Chess tables can be extremely decorative, well made and potentially expensive pieces of furniture.

Chess tables are typically made of solid wood, with rosewood, cedar, and mahogany[1][failed verification] being the most popular.

Many cities and universities have chess tables in their parks and gardens.

Most are the size of a normal picnic table,[citation needed] although some are larger than life sets that use pieces that are about the size of a small barrel.

A chess table is a table with a chessboard painted or engraved on it. The photograph shows a chess table in a park.
