Wooden Chess Set Classic Handmade - Handmade by Hrachya Ohanyan
The frame of this board is carved in a fine knurled diamond texture — thousands of small cells cut wall to wall — with a scalloped inner frame stepping around the warm playing field. Made by National Master Hrachya Ohanyan in a 19.6" | 50 cm format: the size most people settle on.
The board folds in the middle and opens into its own case: the inside is lined in soft felt and fitted to hold the chess pieces, so nothing shifts or marks in transit.
What's Included
- Folding wooden chess board with felt-lined interior
- Full set of hand-turned chess pieces, light and dark
- Fitted felt storage inside the board for the pieces

Why This Chess Set Is Special
- A diamond texture carved cell by cell across the whole frame - no two boards are ever identical

- Created by National Master Hrachya Ohanyan, whose work is collected worldwide
The Classic That Never Ages
Some chess sets chase attention - this one earns respect. The clean classic composition puts the game itself first, which is why a classic wooden chess set remains the most gifted board in the world: for spouses, friends, fathers, and every chess enthusiast who values tradition and craftsmanship.
About the Master - Hrachya Ohanyan
In 1985, National Master Ohanyan began his fine wood craft, introducing a new approach to the age-old traditions of woodworking. After many years of dedication, the Hrachya Ohanyan workshop was established in 2010. The workshop creates classic and original models from high-quality raw materials - each set a work of art admired both locally and internationally. See more of his work in the Hrachya Ohanyan chess sets collection.
14 Levels, Up to 200 Days
Every chess model passes through 14 distinct phases of production: 14 separate craftsmen make their mark on a piece of wood until it reaches its perfected form in the showrooms of Hrachya Ohanyan - a distinguished visual and qualitative experience for those who appreciate true wood artistry.
A Gift That Lasts Generations
A handmade wooden chess set is a luxury gift that never expires - for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, or under the Christmas tree. Solid wood, master craftsmanship and a frame cut cell by cell: it will be played, displayed and passed on.

Frequently asked questions
What products do you make?
Handmade chess sets, backgammon boards and chess tables, carved by hand in Armenia.
Are your products handmade?
Yes. Every piece is handmade and handcrafted for you in Armenia, most of them in master carver Hrachya Ohanyan's workshop in Yerevan. That is why each one takes 1–2 weeks to make.
Do you ship worldwide from Armenia?
Yes. Shipping is free to the US, Canada and all of Europe; other countries pay a flat $100 for tracked delivery, and Brazil, Chile and New Zealand pay $200, always tracked and insured. Every piece is handmade and handcrafted for you, so it takes 1–2 weeks to make. Delivery then takes about 7–9 business days to the US, Canada, Europe and the UK; other regions may take a little longer. Orders over $600 travel by express courier with signature. Tables go by insured furniture freight and arrive about 2–4 weeks after they are finished.
Will I pay customs duties?
US and EU orders are delivered duties paid, so there is nothing more to pay on arrival. For other countries, import fees depend on local rules; write to us and we will help you estimate them.
What is your return policy?
You can return any order within 30 days of delivery, for any reason, worldwide. Faulty or damaged items return free; for change-of-mind returns the item must be unused in its original packaging and you cover return shipping. EU and UK customers also keep their full statutory rights, including a 14-day withdrawal right.
