Dal Rossi French Lardy Boxwood & Sheesham 150mm Double Weighted Chess Pieces

These are pieces that make a statement. The Dal Rossi French Lardy Boxwood & Sheesham 150mm Double Weighted Chess Pieces take the classic French Lardy Staunton pattern and scale it up to a towering 150mm king, for a set with genuine presence on the board and on display. They are turned from warm sheesham and light boxwood, with the weight and finish of a set built to be played for years. Explore the full Dal Rossi range for more from the brand.

The French Lardy pattern is a European classic: rounded, elegant lines, a gently curved knight, and clean proportions that read easily across the board, even at this larger scale. The dark pieces are turned from sheesham for a warm, reddish-brown grain, and the light pieces from boxwood, so the striking contrast comes from the timber itself.

Each piece is double-weighted for a satisfying heft and a stable feel that suits the larger size. This is a pieces-only set, ready to pair with a large board of your choice.

Key features

  • Classic French Lardy Staunton pattern scaled to a towering 150mm king
  • Double-weighted for a satisfying heft and a stable feel on the board
  • Sheesham dark pieces with a warm, reddish-brown grain
  • Natural boxwood light pieces for a striking contrast
  • Oversized presence that stands out in play and on display
  • Hand-finished carving with smooth, consistent turning
  • A statement set for a large board or a feature room
  • Sold as pieces only, ready to pair with your own large board

How these jumbo French Lardy pieces compare to standard sets

Most wood pieces top out around a 95mm king. At 150mm, these Dal Rossi pieces are a different proposition: a genuine oversized set that commands the table and works as a feature piece as much as a playing set. They keep the traditional French Lardy character, just at a much larger scale.

Turned from solid timber and double-weighted, they carry real heft and stay planted during play. To compare standard-size options, browse our full chess pieces collection or the wider wood chess pieces range.

Weighting and feel

The weighting suits the size. Each piece carries enough mass to stay planted once it is placed, which keeps the position stable and gives the larger pieces a reassuring solidity in the hand. 

The turning is smooth and consistent across the set, and the sheesham and boxwood take a clean finish that looks the part on a large board.

Compatible boards

These are oversized pieces, so they need a large board to match. As a guide, a 150mm king suits boards with squares around 70mm to 80mm, well beyond a standard tournament or home board. 

Aim for a king base that covers about three quarters of a square. Because of the size, our standard Dal Rossi boards are too small for this set, so pair them with a large board instead. Browse our full chess boards collection to find a board with a large enough square, and check the square size against these pieces before ordering.

Our expert take

“This is a set to make a room. The 150mm king has real presence, and keeping the French Lardy pattern at this scale means it still looks like a proper chess set rather than a novelty. The double-weighting gives the larger pieces a solidity you can feel. Just remember these need a genuinely large board to sit right, so plan the board to match before you buy”.

Frequently asked questions
Do these come with a board?

No. This is a pieces-only set. Because of the oversized 150mm king, you will need a large board to match. Browse our chess boards collection and check the square size before ordering.

What board size suits a 150mm king?

As a guide, look for a board with squares around 70mm to 80mm. A king base that covers about three quarters of a square is the sweet spot. Standard tournament and home boards will be too small.

Are the pieces weighted?

Yes. The pieces are double-weighted for a satisfying heft and a stable feel that suits the larger size.

What is the difference between French Lardy and a standard Staunton?

French Lardy is a classic European take on the Staunton pattern, with rounded, slightly softer lines and a gently curved knight. It reads clearly on the board and has a more traditional character.

How do I care for the pieces?

Wipe them with a soft, dry cloth and keep them out of direct sunlight and damp conditions. Avoid dragging pieces across the board to protect both the pieces and the surface.
