10 Things to Know Before Buying Chess Pieces

1. Stone chess pieces are often quite detailed and found mostly in themed chess sets such as historical, animal, or novelty styles.

2. Hand-carved and coated in a high-gloss lacquer, wooden chess pieces fit in well with any number of chessboard styles.

3. Metal chess pieces can be made of solid brass and accented with gold and silver or painted for even more beauty. Some chess pieces combine polished metal tops and perfectly weighted wooden bases.

4. Plastic chess pieces are an affordable and durable choice for everyday and recreational play.

5. The size of chess pieces you choose should be proportional to the board you're using. Chess piece size is measured by king height and comes in a wide range, typically as small as 2 inches and as large as 4 inches or more.

6. High-quality chess pieces are weighted to promote stability and guard against accidental knocking over. Double and Triple weighted chess pieces are considered high quality.

7. A great alternative to Marble is Marble-Resin. Marble Resin pieces are made from a very durable material that mimics carved stone.

8. A good gauge of the quality of a particular set of chess pieces is the knight. Hand-carved knights may represent as much as 50 percent of the total cost of the entire set.

9. Things to look for when buying quality chess pieces include the quality of the turnings, the level of detail, the finish, and overall uniformity of the pieces to one another.

  • "I have literally spent hours searching the web. Your site is one of the few that had a traveling chess set with briefcase handle and pieces that were secured with straps (exactly what I wanted). It looks like it is a good, quality product, and I can't wait to receive it! I know my son will treasure this for years to come."
