Chess board gift

Gorgeous piece!

My son has recently taken chess up and spends a lot of his time on chess.com. He announced to his girlfriend that he felt he would be “able to beat the old man” (all in good fun) and then challenged me to play.

Several games later, a wiser and much more humble son texted his girlfriend that he needed a lot more practice because “the old man seems to have played far more chess than I though he had…” :joy:

I just smiled and thanked him for the games.
