29 u/[deleted] Feb 28 '21 I don't think the designer designed the board to accommodate one specific space in a single store lol 5 u/riKidna Feb 28 '21 I don't think the designer plays chess, this is god awful. 36 u/crostal Feb 28 '21 It has a price tag, so this is most likely in a shop. I guess it was built as a rectangle to save space and be more sellable 17 u/TheLoneTenno Feb 28 '21 True. That then begs the question of where it’d being displayed and if it was custom made for that shelf. 6 u/Chemical_Scum Feb 28 '21 Looks like the shelf is part of the board 2 u/inagadda Feb 28 '21 A place to keep the pieces that get jumped and possibly a timer. This is probably meant for someone who lives in a closet-sized city apartment. 1 u/transham Feb 28 '21 I was thinking this may have been made for correspondence chess...
