The Morphy

The Morphy folds to a slim 50 mm profile, revealing a walnut and maple board with 35 mm squares and algebraic notation. Solid wood construction built for decades of play, whether stored at home or packed for travel.

Tournament players and serious hobbyists choose this board for its balance of craftsmanship and portability. The foldable design accommodates standard pieces without compromise on playing surface or durability.

Please note that chess pieces are not included with this board and are sold separately.

Paul Morphy was the 19th century American genius who sailed to Europe to defeat every top player on the continent, then retired. He’s the archetypal travelling chess player. Sapele is an African timber with the warmth of mahogany – beautiful but practical. A foldable board is fundamentally a travel product, and no name in chess history fits a travel set better than the man who crossed an ocean to play.
