More information

A classic Staunton set in rosewood

The Royal follows the traditional Staunton style. DGT crafts it by hand in rosewood, with warm brown tones, and each piece is fitted with a felt base. The finely carved knight is the set's signature piece: DGT sees it as a mark of the craftsmanship put into every set. The brand states that the pieces are made to tournament standards.

The right board for the Royal

DGT pairs this set with the walnut and rosewood e-Boards. On the rosewood e-Board's page, the brand cites the Royal as an example of pieces with warm red tones that match this board. The Royal also works on the wenge e-Board, the Smart Board and the tournament e-Boards. Once placed on one of these boards, every move played is recognised: you can record your games, broadcast them live, or play online while holding real pieces in your hand.

Standard or weighted

This set is the unweighted version, weighing 760g. DGT offers the same model weighted, at 1kg, on another listing in the shop. The design, king height and compatible boards remain the same; only the feel in hand differs.

What you need to know

These pieces don't work on their own: without a DGT e-Board or Smart Board, they transmit no moves. If you don't yet have a DGT board, add one to your order. The Pegasus and the Centaur have their own pieces, supplied with them.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an electronic chess board to use these pieces?

Yes. The DGT board recognises the pieces and transmits the moves; it is sold separately: USB, Bluetooth or tournament e-Board, or Smart Board.

Which e-Board should I pair them with?

DGT recommends walnut or rosewood, whose tones match the Royal's warm brown shades. The set also works on the wenge, the Smart Board and the tournament e-Boards.

What's the difference with the weighted version?

The weight: 760g for this set, 1kg for the weighted version (DGT 27004). The design and king height are identical.

Can they be used in tournaments?

Yes. DGT states that the Royal pieces are made to tournament standards, and they work on the tournament e-Boards.

What is the warranty?

2 years.
