I absolutely love this piece. It looks like a wooden checker board has been slapped down right in the middle. You have the alternating light and dark sides. Mahogany colored edges are on both sides of the board. The swivel top and back are stained in a medium oak. With all these different colors I cannot believe they work so well together. The entire piece is made from sheesham wood and stained with different finishes. The swivel top when opened reveals two compartments. One with an aluminum bat that is spring loaded and the other is for tobacco. It is easy to carry as it is compact and light weight. Place it in your pocket or purse when you are out on the town
