The 56cm Tournament Chess Table & Pieces Bundle is the compact tournament-grade chess setup in our range. It pairs our handcrafted Golden Rosewood & Maple 56cm Chess Table with hand-carved 4.1" Pro Staunton weighted chess pieces in matching Golden Rosewood and Boxwood. Table and pieces supplied together as a single ready-to-play chess setup, with everything organised into the two integrated storage drawers built into the table itself.
The 56cm table has a 55mm playing surface, hand-turned Golden Rosewood legs with grooved stoppers, and two green-felt-lined storage drawers that keep the pieces protected and accessible between sessions. The 4.1" Pro Staunton pieces are hand-carved from Golden Rosewood for the dark side (matching the dark board squares for cohesive material continuity) and Boxwood for the light side. The set includes 34 pieces total: 32 standard pieces plus 2 extra queens for uninterrupted promotion play.
For chess players who want a compact permanent playing station without sourcing table and pieces separately, and for gift buyers who want to give a complete premium chess setup in a single purchase, this bundle delivers everything required at this scale.
Sterling Chess carries a curated range of premium chess tables, each with a distinct character and use case.
The 56cm Tournament Chess Table & Pieces Bundle (this bundle) is the compact tournament chess setup with the 56cm table and matching 4.1" Pro Staunton pieces supplied together. Best for buyers who want a compact ready-to-play chess setup in a single purchase, and for gift buyers who want to give a complete premium chess setup rather than a partial one.
The 58cm Tournament Chess Table & Pieces Bundle is the larger version of the same concept, pairing the same 4.1" Pro Staunton pieces with the tournament-grade 58cm table (57mm FIDE-standard squares). The larger 57mm squares give the pieces slightly more comfortable playing room. Best for buyers who want the extra playing room and the FIDE-standard tournament proportions.
The Golden Rosewood & Maple 56cm Chess Table is the same table sold individually without pieces, for buyers who already own tournament-grade chess pieces or prefer to select their own.
The Chessmasters Series 76cm Chess Table is the premium rectangular workspace-style table with wide accessory borders for chess clocks, captured pieces, and reference materials.
The Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory 53cm Chess Table is the compact tournament-grade table with acrylic ivory light squares for maximum board contrast.
The Golden Rosewood & Acrylic Ivory 61cm Chess Table is the boutique luxury round chess table with heritage Indian inlay artwork on the border.
The table in this bundle is the Golden Rosewood & Maple 56cm Chess Table. Handcrafted from premium Golden Rosewood and Maple, with a 56 x 56cm playing surface featuring 55mm inlaid squares. The 27" (69cm) table height suits comfortable seated play at standard dining or study chairs.
Two green-felt-lined storage drawers are built into opposite sides of the apron beneath the playing surface, each fitted with a vintage-style brass handle and sized to accommodate the 4.1" Pro Staunton set that ships with this bundle. The hand-turned Golden Rosewood legs feature grooved stoppers at the floor contact point for stability during play, keeping the table planted through vigorous piece movement and blitz play. The 14kg solid hardwood table combined with the 1.4kg piece set gives the complete setup substantial weight and stability during play.
The chess pieces in this bundle are hand-carved 4.1" (104mm) Pro Staunton weighted pieces. This is a grandmaster-level piece set with proportions that many serious players prefer over the more common 3.75" tournament king height. The pieces are carved from Golden Rosewood for the dark side (matching the dark squares of the table for cohesive visual continuity) and Boxwood for the light side.
| Piece | Height | Base diameter |
| King | 104mm (4.1") | 47mm (1.9") |
| Queen | 89mm (3.5") | 42mm (1.7") |
| Bishop | 79mm (3.1") | 40mm (1.6") |
| Knight | 74mm (2.9") | 38mm (1.5") |
| Rook | 66mm (2.6") | 40mm (1.5") |
| Pawn | 58mm (2.3") | 33mm (1.3") |
The set includes 34 pieces total: 32 standard pieces plus 2 extra queens for uninterrupted promotion play. Total piece weight is 1.4kg, with each piece weighted for confident stable placement on the board.
The Pro Staunton design is the classic tournament Staunton pattern executed to hand-carved standards, with weighted bases, felt padding, and refined proportions that serious tournament players expect. The Golden Rosewood dark pieces have the same warm honey-brown tone as the dark board squares, creating a cohesive material continuity that reads immediately as a considered high-end chess setup.
The bundle uses Golden Rosewood consistently across the dark elements of the setup: the dark board squares, the table frame and legs, and the dark chess pieces. This material continuity creates a visual cohesion that a chess setup assembled from separate table and piece purchases rarely achieves. The warm honey-brown tone of the Golden Rosewood repeats through the setup, giving the whole chess station a considered, unified aesthetic character.
The Boxwood light pieces provide clean contrast against the Golden Rosewood dark pieces. This is the traditional Staunton material pairing used for premium chess sets for generations. The Maple light board squares complement both timbers, tying the entire visual system together.
The two green-felt-lined storage drawers built into the table are sized to accommodate the 34-piece Pro Staunton set. One drawer holds the light Boxwood pieces, the other holds the dark Golden Rosewood pieces, keeping the set organised and immediately ready for the next game. The green felt lining protects the pieces from surface damage during storage, and the drawers open cleanly for easy piece access.
For serious chess players who want a dedicated permanent playing station without cluttering the space with a separate piece storage box, the integrated drawer storage is a genuine practical benefit. The bundle arrives with the pieces in the drawers, ready to set up and play.
The 56cm Tournament Chess Table & Pieces Bundle is the compact ready-to-play chess setup we recommend for buyers who want a complete premium chess station in a single purchase. Buying a table and pieces separately can leave buyers guessing at proportions, mismatching materials, or ending up with an inconsistent visual setup. This bundle solves those problems: the table and pieces are supplied together, the Golden Rosewood repeats through the dark elements for cohesive material continuity, and the integrated storage drawers make the complete setup ready to play from day one. The 4.1" Pro Staunton pieces give the setup real presence with the substantial king height that many serious players prefer over the more common 3.75" tournament size. For buyers who want a considered permanent chess setup at a compact scale, and for gift buyers who want to give a complete premium chess purchase, this bundle is the answer.

The bundle includes the full Golden Rosewood & Maple 56cm Chess Table (with two integrated storage drawers) and 34 hand-carved 4.1" Pro Staunton weighted chess pieces in Golden Rosewood and Boxwood (32 standard pieces plus 2 extra queens). Everything needed for a complete chess setup is supplied in one purchase.
The 4.1" (104mm) king height is the grandmaster-preferred larger end of tournament king sizes. Many serious players prefer the additional visual presence and confident scale of the larger pieces over the more common 3.75" tournament king. The pieces give the setup real presence on the board.
The 58cm Tournament Chess Table & Pieces Bundle uses the same 4.1" Pro Staunton pieces paired with the larger 58cm table (57mm FIDE-standard squares, 38-48mm king base range). The larger 57mm squares provide slightly more comfortable playing room for the 47mm king base pieces. This 56cm bundle uses the more compact 56cm table (55mm squares, 38-46mm king base range) for buyers who prefer the more compact table footprint. Both bundles deliver a complete tournament chess setup with the same piece set.
The set includes 2 extra queens (one for each side) so that pawn promotion can proceed without interrupting play. This is standard practice for premium tournament chess sets. The extra queens ensure a genuine queen is always available for promotion rather than resorting to an inverted rook or a substitute piece.
The Golden Rosewood & Maple 56cm Chess Table is available separately without pieces. It suits buyers who already own tournament-grade chess pieces or prefer to select their pieces separately from the chess pieces collection.
The 14kg table combined with the 1.4kg piece set gives the complete setup substantial weight and stability during play. The hand-turned Golden Rosewood legs feature grooved stoppers at the floor contact point that resist lateral movement, and the weighted pieces stay firmly in place during even vigorous rapid or blitz play.
The dark pieces are hand-carved from Golden Rosewood, matching the dark squares of the table for cohesive visual continuity. The light pieces are hand-carved from Boxwood, the traditional light piece timber for premium Staunton chess sets.
The playing surface sits at 27" (69cm) from the floor, which is the correct height for comfortable seated play at any standard dining or study chair.
The table ships with the legs detached for safe, damage-free transport. Attaching the legs to the base is straightforward and requires only basic assembly.
The table features two integrated green-felt-lined drawers on opposite sides of the apron beneath the playing surface. The drawers are sized to accommodate the 34-piece set, typically one drawer for the light pieces and one for the dark. The pieces arrive in the drawers ready to set up.
Yes. This bundle is one of the strongest gift purchases in our chess table range for serious chess players. The complete setup arrives ready to play with no additional purchases required, and the substantial 4.1" Pro Staunton pieces paired with the handcrafted table make a considered premium gift.
Both the 56cm Chess Table and the 4.1" Pro Staunton weighted chess pieces are handcrafted by skilled artisans.
