They can be found in homes, libraries, chess clubs, or any other place where chess is enjoyed. Furthermore, some chessers may include additional storage compartments or drawers, providing space for chess timers, notepads, or other chess-related accessories.
Overall, a chesser is a dedicated piece of furniture or storage unit designed specifically for keeping and displaying chess pieces in an organized and aesthetically pleasing manner.
