Olive wood chess pieces

High-quality olive wood chess pieces

Olive wood is a beautiful Mediterranean hardwood we use to craft high-quality chess pieces. Known for its striking natural grain patterns, each olive wood set is visually unique. The wood has a pleasant weight and allows for finely detailed carving and a smooth, elegant touch.

There’s no other wood quite like it in terms of aesthetics. If you love distinctive design, this will be a very special chess set to own. And if you’re giving it as a gift, you’re offering a unique, artisan-made chess set of exceptional quality and unmatched beauty. We offer both weighted and unweighted olive wood pieces in various models and sizes.

Olive wood chess pieces made in our workshop

At Mora Play, we specialize in crafting high-quality chess pieces. It all began with Industrias del Ajedrez, which in the 1940s was already producing handcrafted boxwood chess pieces—always with its own unique designs. They created the famous Iberian Staunton, which remains the centerpiece of most national tournaments to this day. Today, we offer over 60 chess set options, allowing you to choose from a wide range of models, sizes, and colors. Furthermore, we are the only chess piece manufacturer in Europe that produces entirely on-site.
