Everyday Play
For games with family or friends, a standard-sized wooden chess set (squares of 45-50 mm) offers the best everyday comfort.
Sets €200-500Competition
A tournament chess board requires squares of 55-58 mm and a wooden king of 95-105 mm, in line with FIDE standards for official tournaments.
Fine woodsCollecting
For collectors, our luxury chess sets in bronze, gold or precious metal are numbered, certified works of art.
Prestige setsDécor
A set in marble or with a historical theme enhances your interior while remaining perfectly playable.
Marble setsWhich chess set suits your profile?
Choosing a chess set depends above all on the player's experience and the occasion. Here are our expert recommendations for each profile:
♟ Child & Beginner
For a children's or beginner's chess set, choose a set with a king of 75-85 mm and squares of 40-45 mm: large enough to be clear, compact enough for small hands. Our starter sets (under €200) in solid wood are ideal for beginning with a genuinely good-quality set. If the child travels, consider our folding sets with magnetic pieces.
♛ Club Player
The regular player will appreciate a set whose proportions come close to club standard: king of 90-95 mm, squares of 50-55 mm. A wooden chess set in rosewood or ebony offers a pleasingly natural weight. For practising at home as well as in the club, our superior sets (€200-500) offer the best balance of quality and playing comfort.
🎁 Gift
A gift chess set makes a lasting impression when it combines beauty and function. For a birthday, Christmas or housewarming, a wooden set with built-in storage between €150 and €400 is a safe choice. If the recipient is a history enthusiast, our themed sets (Romans, medieval, Trojan War) are guaranteed to create a "wow" effect.
♕ Collector
Collectors look for uniqueness: rare woods (Macassar ebony, carved boxwood), solid bronze pieces or gold-plated brass, numbered boxes. Our high-end sets and supreme sets (+€1000) come with a certificate of authenticity and a customisable engraving.
Guide to Staunton dimensions
The Staunton style has been the worldwide standard for chess pieces since 1849. The king's size determines that of the set: measure the king's base and add 25% to get the minimum board square size. Here are the standards:
| King height | Minimum square | Board | Recommended use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 65-75 mm | 35-40 mm | 28-32 cm | Travel, child, beginner |
| 80-90 mm | 42-48 mm | 34-38 cm | Family play, everyday use |
| 90-98 mm | 50-55 mm | 40-48 cm | Club, experienced player |
| 98-110 mm | 55-60 mm | 50-58 cm | FIDE competition, collection |
Expert tip: If you're torn between two sizes, always choose the larger one. A slightly more spacious board improves clarity of play and enjoyment of the game. All our complete sets come with pieces and a board already matched in size.
The materials of our sets
Solid Wood
The wooden chess set remains the timeless choice: warm to the touch, naturally weighted, quiet. Our woods range from beech (entry level) to Macassar ebony (prestige), taking in walnut, maple and rosewood along the way.
Marble & Stone
Our marble sets offer incomparable weight and coolness to the touch. White and black marble, onyx, alabaster: each piece is unique thanks to its natural veining. Ideal for décor and for collecting.
Metal & Bronze
Our metal pieces, in bronze or gilded brass, bring a satisfying weight and a spectacular shine. Silver, gold or patinated finishes: the ultimate luxury chess set.
Resin & Themed Sets
Hand-painted resin allows for themed sets of striking realism: medieval knights, mythological figures, historical characters. An original gift that is as much fun to play as it is to admire.
Our ranges by budget
Fine woods, lead weighting, felt base. The standard for the keen player.
