Fast delivery. Chess pieces (a Limited Edition Staunton set) arrived well-packed and in mint condition. Quality of the pieces is, if anything, superior to the impression given by the photos on Regency's website. Unfortunately, the accompanying case... read more

I have bought two chess sets now from this company. Both orders were executed promptly and correctly and the chess board and pieces were excellent. Now, when I lose, I lose with a beautiful chess set.

A Brief History

Based in the lovely town of La Garriga near Barcelona, Rechapados Ferrer is one of the most respected names in the chessboard industry today. Established in 1956, the company began as a specialist in veneered wood furniture, supplying the Spanish furniture industry with beautifully crafted, precision-finished panels. It wasn't until the 1960s that Rechapados Ferrer produced their first chessboard, marking the beginning of what would become a defining part of their identity.

Handcrafted Chessboards

Over the decades, their name has become synonymous with quality, precision, and consistency. Their chessboards are favoured by many of the world's top chess brands, including us here at Regency Chess, and are a common sight at major international tournaments. Rechapados Ferrer's deep understanding of wood, combined with expert veneering techniques, results in perfectly flat, durable chessboards that resist warping and age gracefully over time.

Every board is made in Spain using responsibly sourced materials, with veneers such as walnut, maple, wenge, and mahogany carefully selected for grain and tone. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are unmistakable - from the flawless finish of the playing surface to the elegant simplicity of their edgework.

A Blend of Modern & Traditional

Rechapados Ferrer's success lies in the seamless blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation. Advanced machinery ensures precision, while the human touch gives each set character and warmth. It's this balance that has made them a trusted supplier to some of the finest chess companies in the world, including The Regency Chess Company.

The Queen's Gambit Original Chessboard

Did you know that Rechapados Ferrer created the chessboard used in The Queen's Gambit Netflix series? This is one of the chessboards (along with a bundled chess set) that we sell, so you can own the very same board used by Beth Harmon!


Whether paired with classic Staunton pieces or modern designs, a Rechapados chess set embodies the best of Spanish woodworking - refined, reliable, and unmistakably beautiful.

FAQs about Rechapados Ferrer Sets

Are the chessboards made from solid wood?

No, the chessboards are made using veneers, which are a thin layer of real wood glued onto a stable base. This results in a more affordable product that doesn't have the drawbacks of solid wood chessboards, such as warping and cracking.

How do the chess sets come packaged?

The chess sets that we currently sell from Rechapados Ferrer come presented in a navy-blue box crafted from quality card. These boxes incorporate a drawer containing the chessmen, and a lid with a magnetic clasp that secures the chessboard. This design offers the perfect storage solution, making the sets great for gifting.

My chessboard has faint white lines or lighter streaks in the wood - is it defective?

As the chessboards are made using real wood veneers, the natural grain of the wood can sometimes be visible, especially on darker squares. This is a normal feature of genuine wood, not a manufacturing fault, and it doesn’t affect the smoothness or quality of the playing surface.

Can I use the chessboard with different chess pieces?

Yes, the chessboards are designed to work with other chessmen. You will need to consider the size of the squares when finding an appropriate set of chessmen to ensure a good fit, but we are always happy to assist with this.

Most of the chessboards you see in our sets are available separately, so you can mix and match as you please to find a combination you like. Please note that the navy-blue storage box mentioned above is only included in the official Rechapados Ferrer bundles.
