Wooden Chess Sets
A chess set consists of 32 chess pieces, including 16 pawns,
4 Rooks, 4 Knights, 4 Bishops, 2 Queens and 2 Kings.
Giantchess.com offers its beautifully sculptured and
precision manufactured chess set pieces in varying
designs (though most often classic), differing
materials (though most often of our prized original
teak) and in many sizes, from large to giant, most
often with kings of 8", 12",
16", 24",
36", 48",
72" though other sizes are available,
or can be custom ordered. Most of our products - increasingly
found in the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia,
and elsewhere throughout the world - can be used
for both indoor and outdoor play, with our large to
giant sets especially suited to backyards, parks,
beaches, campgrounds, entertainment centers of all
kinds, and resort hotels, where they are also increasingly
being found.

8" Chess Set
This 8" set is one of our best sellers. This is so not only because it
is of classic design and made, as all our wooden
sets, of beautiful and durable teak,
but because it is suited for play in any
setting, at any time, indoors or outdoors.
It is easily stored and comes with portable fabric
chess board with 4" x 4" squares. It can
all also be enjoyed with any of our beautiful
teak chessboards, or chess tables (as pictured).

12" Chess Set
This set is very similar to our 8" set, but with a portable fabric board of 6" x 6" squares. Both set and board can also be easily transported to wherever one might wish to play, but may be even more suited to outdoor play - such as in yard, garden, park, or at beach. All that is needed is a balmy day, a flat surface, and a friend with whom to play.

16" Chess Set
This 16" chess set, also of original teak, is particularly
suited for play outdoors. The playing surface
for this chess set is a flat board of 8"
x 8" squares. All ages can play on this
set, of course, but children will be especially
delighted to play with it in yard, garden,
or even play room, and it is still light
enough to be transported wherever one might wish
to take it.

24" Chess Set
Our 24" chess set is very popular for outdoor use,
on a board with 12" x 12" squares. Children
and adolescents especially love these pieces,
and they are still not too large, nor too
heavy, to be taken with you wherever you should
wish to play. Even if kept permanently outdoors, in
yard or garden, because they are of teak they
can withstand any weather.

36" Chess Set
The playing surface for this chess set is a chessboard
with 18" x 18" squares, and is highly suited
to being played by adults in various outdoor settings,
and for many different occasions. Although the
pieces are quite heavy, and are not easily transportable,
they can be easily shifted across the squares
of the board in actual play.

48" Chess Set
This 48" chess set, still with prized original
teak as its main material, played on a chessboard
with 24" x 24" squares, is quite dramatic
in its presentation, whether located in expansive
yard (see picture), house terrace, foyer,
even large room with this as its central attraction.
