Outdoor Furniture Decoration for Garden - Patio

Elegant Giant Chess set for any patio, garden, hotel or resort

2008-02-24T20:02:00.001+07:00

Our most popular size! Ideal for medium to medium-large areas. The Twenty Four is convenient for adults and children of all sizes. It’s not too heavy, not too tall, it’s just right! Only needing an 8 foot square area for a board, it will fit nicely into any Garden or Patio area. The Twenty Four is a very elegant looking set in the Garden or on the Patio without being too overpowering. This set would also be convenient for a Hotel or Resort.

16″ (40 cm) Giant Chess set is great family entertainment

2008-02-24T19:57:00.002+07:00

The 16″ (40 cm) set is starting to get too large for indoor use unless you have a sizable area to locate the board. The Sixteen is a good size for kids. It’s not too heavy, yet small enough that they can handle it comfortably. This size works well for medium sized applications. Although you do have to bend over quite a bit for The Sixteen, it’s light weight makes it an easy set to play for any age for hours of family enjoyment and entertainment.

12″ (30 cm) is a great set for use on a deck, patio or in the garden

2008-02-24T19:54:00.002+07:00

The 12″ set is also lightweight and can be transported easily. It is a little large to be played on the kitchen table but can be used in similar locations as The Eight. It is still small enough to be used as an occasionally played game and will not permanently take up floor space. Outdoors it can be located on a small Patio, Garden, Terrace, Veranda, Deck or in the yard. It is even suitable to play at the beach or at any other outdoor vacation location or event.

Teak Wooden Chess Sets

2007-09-25T16:35:00.000+07:00

Teak Wooden Chess Sets

Teak is popular with upscale homes and resorts because of its luxurious marbled wood grain.
Teak is unsurpassed for outdoor use. To see the beauty of teak's grain,
Teak chess pieces make outstanding decorations.

What kind of teak do we use?
Like most lumber, teak comes in various grades. Ours is ungraded and would be considered a low grade by furniture makers, in fact, unsuitable for construction applications.

This is because our artisans look for stumps, burls, and large-sized rejects of the teak industry. Not only does this save you money, but it is also where teak best showcases its elegant swirling grain structure.

This is also our concession to the environmental causes that seek to reduce the cutting of the rain forests where some teak comes from. See our Environmental Statement for more on that.

Our teak choices come with compromises. The teak is more likely to have voids (which of course we fill) and cracks (which are easy to repair). And it is a little harder to work (but our artisans have the experience to handle that).

We look at this proudly as the result of choices to use the most beautiful teak available, and to keep our world beautiful, too.

Care and Protection of our Teak Products

2007-09-24T20:09:00.000+07:00

Care and Protection of our Teak Products

The Teak used in our sets is derived from stumps, burls, and larger-sized off cuts not utilised by the rest of the teak industry. Not only does this save you money, but it is also where teak best showcases its elegant swirling grain structure. This source of timber is also an environmental concession as no timber is specifically harvested for our products. Our choice of teak comes with compromises. The teak is more likely to have voids (which of course we fill) and cracks (which are easy to repair).

Teak is an extremely durable and hard wearing timber, making it a perfect wood for extended outdoor use. Our pieces are sanded, stained and sealed to help protect them from the elements. Even un-sealed teak is an extremely durable product.

Teak can take up to 2 years to completely cure (dry out). Unfortunately it is cost prohibitive to wait 2 years for our pieces to cure before we ship them. It is not uncommon for the Chess pieces to develop small cracks over time, especially during the curing period. These are natural, unavoidable and add character to the pieces. To help reduce the amount of cracking and splitting periodically rotate the chess pieces so that the same side is not always facing the sun during the curing period. This will not be an issue if the sets are being used regularly. We also recommend storing your teaks sets out of direct long term exposures to the elements - particularly hot, dry conditions to assist in good care.

Finish

Each piece is protected by quality WoodkoteÂ® Flagship UVÂ® professional or Rust Oleum Spa Varnish exterior polyurethane wood finish. Specifically formulated for heavy wear and ultra violet protection, these products outlast conventional clear finishes. They provide an unequaled shield for both exterior and interior wood, making them ideal to care for your investment when exposed to the elements. More information on these finishes can be found at www.woodkote.com or www.rustoleum.com To find the cost of the individual pieces please proceed through the chess pieces option.
