One-of-a-kind
Each piece is cut from natural onyx, so its color, veining and translucency are entirely its own, and may differ from the photos.

The Vela Checkerboard is carved from rare natural onyx, where earthy tones of green, moss and warm brown create a striking contrast against the soft, translucent glow of milky white. Each square and playing piece is naturally unique, with its own tone and veining, making every set one of a kind.
More than a game, it is a centerpiece made to be played and displayed. Whether used for a relaxed match or left on the coffee table, it brings together elegance and play in a way that naturally draws attention.

Material & Care
Material & Care
Onyx is a natural stone that forms drop by drop over millions of years. Its veining is a natural record of water, minerals, and time, which is why no two pieces are ever quite alike. Because it is a product of nature, it deserves a little extra care to keep it looking its best.
- Cleaning: Dust with a soft, dry cloth. For light marks, use a barely damp cloth with a small amount of pH-neutral soap, then dry the surface immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals, all-purpose cleaners, glass sprays, or anything abrasive.
- Spills: As a natural stone, onyx is not stain-proof. Wipe up wine, oils, and other acidic or pigmented liquids as soon as possible.
- Heat: Avoid exposing your piece to sudden or extreme heat to prevent thermal stress, which can potentially crack the stone.
- Light: Display away from prolonged direct sunlight, as extended UV exposure can gradually shift the color of the stone. We recommend placing your piece somewhere with gentle, indirect light instead.
- Handling: Always lift your piece to move it rather than sliding it as the edges are naturally the most vulnerable point.
