After being sourced from the quarry, the Scali Alabastro craftsman, using a band saw, cut from raw alabaster the stone needed for each of the board squares, and place it in a vat with the colour dye for that board. The stone is left there for about twenty days until the colour is fully absorbed into the stone. When the squares are ready, they are dried and then, using a special stone glue, they are put together by hand and set.
When ready, any excess glue is removed and final checks on the unfinished board and pieces are done, weeding out any imperfections and making certain each piece and surface is perfectly smooth. When everything is cleared, a gloss varnish is applied to the board and pieces.
Each chess piece is cut and crafted by an expert craftsman using his hands, a lathe and some special tools.
