They are ideal for anyone who owns a beautiful set of chessmen, or who wants to take it along to the club. To choose, check the maximum king height the box accepts, then the base diameter of the pieces: the king must fit without the pieces touching each other. Also see our chess pieces and chess boards.
Frequently asked questions
How do you choose the size of a storage box?
Measure the king height, then compare it with the maximum height given in the title of each storage box. Next, check the base diameter of the pieces and the number of compartments. Allowing a margin of a few millimetres prevents the pieces from rubbing against each other.
Does a storage box suit every chess set?
No, each storage box is designed for a particular king height, for example 8.8 cm or 11 cm. A taller king will not fit, while a smaller one will move about in its compartment. Measure your pieces before ordering, or check the height given on the chess set's page.
Which material should you choose for a storage box?
Wood, whether golden rosewood, burr veneer, birch or beech, offers good protection and looks like a fine piece of furniture. Faux leather, used for carrying cases, is lighter and easier to transport. Choose according to whether the box will stay at home or travel with you.
