All the colours in our boards are the natural colours of the wood. We never use stains or dyes, so the species you choose decides the look of your board.
American Walnut
Rich chocolate brown with a smooth, even grain. A classic premium choice that pairs beautifully with lighter woods. Shop walnut
Hard Maple
Pale cream and very dense, with a tight grain. It brings the bright contrast to our patterned boards. Shop maple

Wenge

Mixing Woods
Combining a dark wood with a light one, such as walnut with maple, creates the high-contrast patterns our 3D and chess boards are known for.
