Moroccan Thuya Wood Chess Set – Handcrafted Rotating Drawer Chessboard

Handcrafted Moroccan Thuya Wood Chess Set – Rotating Drawer Chessboard

A distinctive handcrafted chess set made in Morocco from precious Thuya wood, combining traditional woodworking with an ingenious rotating storage design.

The chessboard showcases the naturally rich grain of Moroccan Thuya, with warm golden, amber and deep brown tones that make every piece visually unique. The contrasting squares create an elegant playing surface while preserving the natural character of the wood.

A gentle rotation of the upper board reveals four integrated drawers, providing dedicated storage for the handcrafted wooden chess pieces. When closed, the drawers blend seamlessly into the geometric form of the chessboard.

Authentic Moroccan Thuya

Thuya, locally known as Araar, is prized for its remarkable grain, warm natural tones and characteristic aromatic scent. The most expressive figuring comes from carefully selected sections of the wood, giving every chessboard its own natural signature.

Because this is genuine wood, variations in grain, tone and pattern are expected and make each piece unique.
