Immerse yourself in elegance and simplicity with our beginner’s chess set, combining boxwood and acacia wood for the pieces with the natural beauty of maple and mahogany wood for the chess board.
The mahogany and maple chess board offers a comfortable playing surface. With dimensions of 48 x 48 cm, every game becomes an immersive strategic experience. The 5 cm squares allow for maximum precision, creating a perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics.
The chess pieces, carefully carved in boxwood and acacia wood, are in the classic Staunton style. With a king height of 9 cm, the felt base ensures smooth movement while preserving the quality of the chess board.
A beautiful chess set rests on a simple balance: pieces well proportioned
to the size of the squares. To choose a harmonious board, the most reliable guide
is the diameter of the king's base.
Key guideline: ideally, the king's base takes up about 75% of the square.

A board that is too small can hamper moves and make the set look cluttered.
À l’inverse, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole.
The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.
