drinking chess set

And when a piece is captured, you drink the contents

Either that, or you make your opponent drink the contents to further weaken their game!

It looks a bit over my budget but is there any chance that it will show up in your etsy shop?

I give your "test" a grade of A+

The gift tenmoku that you made is a personal fave! (well as are all of yours ... )
