The table for the 2024 World Chess Championship Match in Singapore between Ding Liren and Gukesh D was crafted by the local furniture company Roger&Sons. The wood used was sourced locally, with the majority of the table made from Khaya wood (African mahogany) and accented with Angsana wood. Jimmy Tan, deputy chairman of the championship’s organizing committee, remarked, “Roger&Sons impressed us with their dedication to sustainability and exceptional craftsmanship.”
