Roman design, cream/black, felt bottom

Roman Empire-style chess pieces in cream and black are a decorative 32-piece set made from plastic, with protective bottoms and a distinctive look that suits home, club or recreational play on larger chessboards.

The Roman-inspired forms give the set its character: the rooks are shaped like columns and the knights evoke mounted legionaries. Finished in cream and black, the pieces are easy to recognise on the board and have protective bottoms that help them move more smoothly while reducing the risk of scratching the surface.

With a king height of 96 mm and a pawn height of 63 mm, the set works best with a recommended square size of 55–58 mm. It is a good choice for players who want chess pieces with a more decorative, collectible feel.

Choosing the right chessboard

Because of the size of the pieces, this set works best with chessboards that have 55–58 mm squares, especially folding plastic, cardboard and vinyl boards.
