Looking for a metal chess set that looks great on display? The Brass Vintage set has 92mm brass figure pieces on a 35cm board.
Choose antique brass and gold, or gloss black and silver. Each set is handmade in India.
The board has 40mm squares and the set weighs close to 5kg. See more in our metal chess sets collection.
These pieces are figures rather than turned Staunton shapes, so the set has a classic, vintage look.
The king stands 92mm tall and every piece sits on a 21mm base with thick black felt underneath.
The antique brass and gold set has a warm, aged look. The gloss black and silver set is brighter and more modern.
Because the pieces are brass, the full set is heavy, at close to 5kg with the board.
The board is about 35cm across with 40mm squares, which suits the small piece bases.
It's made from MDF, so it's light and stable, and it keeps the set compact enough for a shelf or coffee table.
The set comes with 32 pieces. Spare queens aren't included.
Want a set with more traditional Staunton shapes? Take a look at the Brass Luxury 35cm chess set.
"These brass figures make a lovely display piece on a shelf or coffee table. The bases are small and the board is MDF, so it's more of a showpiece than a set for serious play. If you want a gift that gets noticed, it's a good choice."
- Blake Sterling, CEO & Founder, Sterling Chess
