Frequently asked questions

Which pieces should you choose for a 50 x 50 cm chessboard?

Look for wooden Staunton pieces with a king measuring 9 to 9.8 cm. Its base should occupy 75 to 80% of the square, that is around 4.2 to 4.6 cm in diameter. Smaller pieces would look lost on this board, while larger ones would get in each other's way when moving.

Is a 50 cm chessboard suitable for tournament play?

Yes. The competition standard calls for squares of 5 to 6 cm, which matches this size. It offers good readability and comfortable handling of pieces. For official use, also check that the squares are plain and the surface is matte, without glare.

Does this category contain boards or complete sets?

Only boards sold alone, without pieces. This suits you if you already own a set to match or if you'd like to pair it with pieces chosen separately. To buy the pieces and board together, see the category of complete chess sets with a 50 cm board.
