Staunton No. 5 Tournament Chess Pieces w/ Wood Box

The chess set came very promptly and was just as described. We bought it for our young grandson who's a keen chess player. The pieces are a good size - quite large - and weighted so that they don't fall over too easily. It was in perfect condition and we were very pleased with it. We bought a 40cm cardboard chess board to go with it and that seems to be a good size for the pieces.

A gorgeous chess set for the price. The king's top bit was glued on a bit wonky but I can look past that. Nicely weighted, they feel so good when making a move. I would suggest this if your chess board has 4cm (1.5") squares as the base for the king and queen is about 3.5cm. Will look absolutely beaut when I've finished building my chess board. The box is very nice too. Worth every penny! 5*!

Really nice set of pieces. Bought it for my birthday during lockdown. I've played a lot of chess online with the board set up. Make sure you but a 19" board. Worth every penny.

This chess set is quite nicely made which makes them a [pleasure to use.The only down side is that they are a bit light.Would have been even better if they were weighted.

Lovely pieces with a nice weight to them.

What a lovely chess set this was! Quality wooden pieces which look great on my wooden board. Recommended!

Very good

Just the job for board had already.

For it's price, this is a rather good entry level chess set. The box is a nice extra, and I'd say this works well with the right colour tone of vinyl chess board. Not really good as a gift as it there is no wooden board included and it's a bit awkward to travel around with a solid wooden box. If one wants a higher level wood chess set. you can look at House of Staunton.

Wedding gift. Was so prompt and good quality.

my wife, while garage sale shopping with her sister, came across a very old looking table that was extremely dusty. Always one for a bargain and since she loves to restore wood items, she picked it up for just a couple bucks. My first opinion when she brought it home was, "please don't bring it in the house", but a few days later, after she cleaned it up, she did and I realized it was a chess table. After she spent a few hours cleaning it up, it was actually in pretty good shape, even though it didn't really match our furniture, we parked it by the entry way of our house (inside, mind you). After seeing the table my boys (17,14) went to the closet and found there old plastic chess set pieces and started to play (on the new table). After seeing this go on for the next week, I decided to purchase a better set of wood pieces that would look a little nicer than the plastic pieces they were using. I came across this set, it looked really nice, the price was right so i purchased it. It came super quick, thanks amazon, and it goes absolutely perfect with the table.Its been a few months and although they don't play as much chess anymore, maybe only once a week, I never put the pieces away in the nice little wood box they came in, nor do I put them in the chess table drawer, I leave them out on the table, all set up, waiting for the next match.....(they have been dropped a few times, nothing broken off, and we have tile in the entry, the pieces have a really nice weight to them, not heavy but definitely not light like they were cheap or anything, have had no issues with the underside felt neither....the detail is very nice, i have never purchased a set like this before and I am very pleased with the quality..)
