On the look-out for some inexpensive chess pieces with a decent feel? Then you will like our Staunton Set, made from hornbeam. And best of all: They come in a wonderfully crafted storage box which looks way better than you would expect from the price.
In more detail, the king measures a height of 90mm with a weight of 32g. As the title suggest, the pieces are crafted in the traditional Staunton design, which is the de-facto standard for chess pieces. A board of 45mm field size is recommended to ideally fit the king with its 35mm base diameter. The pieces are great for the occasional player or for clubs where wooden pieces are preferred over plastic ones, without paying a hefty premium. Due to their low price they are equally suited for children or teenagers were some pieces may get the occasional knock. The storage box offers space for the pieces of this set and can be securely shut.
Our Staunton No. 5 pieces are ideal for you if you need some inexpensive wooden chess pieces and would also like to have them securely stored away, all in one place. And thanks to its gorgeous looks, the storage box will fit nicely on your shelf and doesn't need to be hidden away.
