Stunning! Love that red stain. Congratulations on your new noj set.
Dubrovnik Minceta from NOJ
I'll probably go for the same set when my turn comes. How do you you like red so far? Do you think it will last?

The Red Minceta is an incredible set to hold and admire in person. Janez handmixes and applies the stain beautifully. So much depth and luster. Enjoy!

Thanks for your appreciations..yes i love this color...dark red wine...the most beautiful with the right color board!!😉

@rsvenkatachalam...the Set is 3.6" King and the board is 60mm squares Padouk hi gloss https://www.chessbazaar.com/wooden-red-ash-burl-maple-hi-gloss-finish-chess-board-24-60-mm.html
The match of the chessmen and the board is very good, although picture from top would be helpful. I just worry that reflection from the board would be distracting during the play.
yes, the glossy wooden boards look so beautiful that one absolutely wants them. But then like you said they would be distracting or a hindrance to playing well. that is the reason chess rules dictate that the pieces and board should not be shiny. these boards are available in glossy or matt finish i believe. Hard decision to make.
