Most of our products are made and assembled by hand, with carefully selected materials and traditional techniques. This craftsmanship often incorporates elements like nail holes, dowels, and other construction details, which are not defects but part of the product’s authentic handmade character.
Natural Wood Variations: Wood is a natural material, so variations in color, tone, and shade are expected. These natural differences make each piece distinct and one-of-a-kind.
Artistic Hand-Carving: Each item is individually hand-carved, resulting in slight variations between pieces within a set, adding unique character to each piece and enhancing their individuality.
Approximate Sizes and Weights: Due to the handmade nature of our products, provided measurements and weights are approximate, allowing for minor variations.
Veneer Usage: For transparency, please note that veneer is used exclusively in our chess boards and boxes, ensuring compliance with CITES regulations on wood species. Unless specifically stated otherwise, all other items are crafted from solid wood for quality and authenticity.
In the realm of hand-carved products, it's essential to acknowledge that the artistry involved in crafting chess pieces and related items by hand can lead to unique variations. The use of wood, being a natural material, inherently results in differences in colour, shade, and tone.
Furthermore, please keep in mind that the hand-carving process may introduce subtle differences between individual pieces within a set, adding to their individual character.
Additionally, for transparency, we want to clarify that the use of veneer is exclusive to our chess boards and boxes. All other items, including chess pieces and related accessories, are crafted from solid wood unless explicitly stated otherwise in our listings. This distinction is made to ensure compliance with CITES regulations governing lumber species while maintaining the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of our hand-carved products.
