Chess sets
Chess sets come in many sizes and styles. This traditional outdoor set is made using Scottish Oak, sourced locally to me. It is designed to be played on a board with 26 cm to 30cm squares, the Pawns are 30 cm high and Kings are 65 cm high with 20 cm diameter base, but I can make to your sizes.
I have found Oak to be the best wood for these outdoor sets; it is durable, tough and produced from renewable local sources.

If you would like more details on prices and shipping, or maybe you would like a chess set a little smaller, or with a theme of your own, send me an e-mail with your questions or ideas.
Chess sets with a theme
I also make Chess Sets with a theme. I designed and made the Scottish Medieval Set below for a client wanting the theme of MacDonalds v. MacLeans. The castles are based on Scottish Tower Houses, and the pawns all have clan emblems carved onto their shields. Great Fun.
