Walnut Storage Box (for most pieces up to 3.75")

WALNUT STORAGE BOX

Excellent product. I buy a lot from this site and it has always exceeded mu expectations.

Chess pieces lay on side

The box is really nice and the chess pieces of up to 3.75” do fit, but you must lay them on their side to fit. When I had watched the YouTube video on this box it demonstrated the king standing up, which I preferred. Other than that the box is great!

Not quite as expected

The description says it will take up to 3.75" pieces. Not even close; lid won't close. Now I presumed that meant all pieces standing up. Hmmmm .... it will take a full set of 3.75" pieces but king and queen and several pawns must go in laying down on top of each other. Which exposes the pieces to inevitable long term damage as the box is moved about. Disappointed. As to the quality of the box it is great for the money. Well made, everything aligns, finish is unremarkable but I couldn't buy the materials, wood and hardware plus time it would take to actually make the box, and you have to have some box making skill to execute a equally good aligning box, for what they charge for the box. A great value in that regard. If you get the box for 3.75" pieces get the larger box, which I presume is of similar construction and quality.
