This Sapele tournament chess set blends timeless style with a true tournament setup, built for players who value quality and solid workmanship.
Featuring a 48cm sapele board with 50mm squares, it offers clean spacing and clear definition—ideal for comfortable play and long, focused games.
And at 3.5kg, the set has a reassuring weight that helps keep the board steady and secure on your table.
Paired with German ebonised boxwood chess pieces and including extra queens, this set delivers an authentic tournament-style experience.
Measuring at 48cm x 48cm, this sapele board gives you a compact tournament playing surface and with 50mm squares, spacing stays consistent and each chess piece has enough room for placement.
This board is about quality first. It’s made to the standard you expect from high-end European made chess sets, where the board is handcrafted by world-class artisans.
It’s square lines are straight and evenly spaced, the corners and edges are finished cleanly, and the surface is even across the board.
This level of craftsmanship shows up every time you set it down: it looks refined up close, it presents well on a table, and it holds its finish better than a mass-produced board.
These German ebonised chess pieces bring a clean, classic look that suits tournament play and everyday games at home.
Made from boxwood, they have a solid wood feel with a nice natural weight – plus they are weighted with steel, not toxic lead.
Overall, they deliver a more refined feel than typical plastic sets without losing that traditional chess look.
This tournament chess set is crafted by world-class artisans who take real pride in quality.
They oversee the entire process, from sourcing timber from sustainable forestry to making sure people and the environment are treated fairly and ethically.
And the chess pieces and board specifications meet the requirements of The World Chess Federation (FIDE).
It’s a solidly made chess set available in Australia for players who want lasting quality, craftsmanship, and value for money.
"The Sterling Chess team absolutely loves Sunrise chess sets for their craftsmanship, authenticity, and attention to detail. Each set reflects timeless artistry and superior quality, making every game feel special. From vintage reproductions to luxury designs, Sunrise chess products truly capture the passion and tradition of chess.”

The 48cm board with 50mm squares gives you clear spacing for proper play. Pieces sit neatly in each square, so positions stay easy to read and moves don’t feel fiddly.
At 3.5kg, the set has enough weight to stay put through normal play, even when games get a bit lively.
They’re boxwood chess pieces, so they’ve got that proper solid-wood feel in the hand. It’s a big step up from lightweight plastic sets.
Yes. The German ebonised pieces are designed to stand out clearly against the board, so you can scan the position faster without second-guessing what’s what.
Yes, extra queens are included. That means when a pawn promotes, you can swap to a real queen straight away without improvising.
It’s built with tournament-style dimensions and materials, so it’s meant to be played on regularly. It looks good on the table, but it’s made for proper sessions, not just sitting on a shelf.
