==Description==
A chess table is a [[Table (furniture)|table]] built with features to make it useful for playing the game of [[chess]]. A chess board is usually integral to the table top and often two [[Drawer|drawers]] are provided to hold the pieces when not in use. Most chess tables have the board [[Inlay|inlaid]] or [[Engraving|engraved]], though cheaper tables may have it [[Paint|painted]] on. Chess tables can be extremely [[decorative]], well made and potentially expensive pieces of furniture. A chess table is not necessary to play chess and is not restricted only to playing chess.
There is another type of chess, known as table chess. IT uses no board, simply just a table, and as pawns any object can be used, most commonly used is water bottles. This is the type of game that you have to play to know the secret. Its different flips and spins done to the water bottle that can get you to win. Only a few people know how to play though, so if you see this you are a small handful of people to know.
