Price $60 (open to reasonable offers – please don’t ghost me 😄) Category Toys & Games › Board Games & Puzzles › Chess Location Redlands / Inland Empire (easy 210 & 10 fwy access) Condition Good – gently used, all 32 pieces included Description Ready to level‑up family game night? I’m letting go of a purchased in mid‑90s hand‑carved & pyro‑burned wooden chess set that I originally snagged from a little antique shop back in the day. Details: • Board – Solid wood, folds to a locking storage box. Open size ~15.75 × 15.75in; Squares are light pine/beech with dark squares burned in a geometric pattern. • Pieces – 32 lathe‑turned pieces with matching burn accents, felt bases for smooth gliding. Kings stand ~3 1/2in tall. • Storage – Pink felt‑lined interior keeps everything safe on the go. • Condition notes – Normal vintage wear: a few surface scratches, slight felt fading inside, and one dark pawn sports a small chip (see pics). Nothing that affects play or display. Board sits flat, hinges & clasps work great. Why you’ll love it • Unique artisanal look (not your basic plastic Staunton). • Folds up fast—perfect for park days or coffee‑shop showdowns. • Makes a solid gift for players, collectors, or that one friend who’s suddenly into chess after binge‑watching The Queen’s Gambit. Pricing & pickup Asking $60. Willing to haggle down if you’re quick and courteous. Cash please. Local pickup in Redlands. #vintagechess #woodenchess #foldingchess #handcarved #burnedwood #boardgames #collectible #travelchess First come, first served—shoot me a message if you’re ready to make your move! ♟️
