Classic Ebonised 3,75" chess pieces

American Classic 3.75-inch carved wooden chess pieces are a classic Staunton-style set made for regular play at home, in clubs and in tournament games. The set includes 32 pieces with extra queens, and the hand-carved shape gives it the familiar, practical feel players expect from traditional chess pieces.

The pieces are made from boxwood. The light pieces keep the natural look of the wood, while the dark pieces have an ebonised finish, giving the set a clear, traditional contrast on the board. It is a straightforward, versatile choice for everyday use and for pairing with a more formal wooden chessboard.

Weighted construction adds stability during play, and the felted bases help the pieces move smoothly across the board while also being kinder to the surface. That makes the set comfortable to use in longer games and easier to handle move after move.
