Transform a classic game into a custom masterpiece. This unique workshop invites friends, partners, and couples to step into the world of functional art. Together, you will design and detail a wooden chess set that is as beautiful on a coffee table as it is in play.Whether you want to create a cohesive duo-themed set or two contrasting armies of color, Sasha will guide you through the professional techniques used to turn raw wood into a sophisticated, bespoke game.
✨ You’ll explore:
- Surface Design: Mapping out patterns on wooden boards and pieces.
- Precision Detailing: Mastering fine lines and accents for a "boutique" finish.
- Color Theory: Choosing palettes that enhance the natural grain of the wood.
- Durability & Finish: Professional sealing to ensure your set lasts for years of play.
Expect a hands-on, meditative atmosphere where craft meets connection. No woodworking or painting experience required—Sasha provides the templates and "pro-hacks" to ensure a high-end result.
Leave with a stunning, hand-designed wooden chess set and a new centerpiece for your home.
