Our chess sets are made of pine wood, with a folding board and 32 pieces (16 white, 16 black) included in every set — built-in compact storage, with no accessory to add. Two formats: the Touriste range, designed for travel (from 29 cm), and the Ambassador and Senator ranges, larger, for a chess set that has its place at home. A gift that crosses generations, whatever the player's level.

Frequently asked questions

Which board size should I choose?

For travelling or a first set, the travel format (29 or 32 cm) is the most practical. For a chess set that stays put, decorative as much as functional, the Senator (41.5 cm) or Ambassador (54 cm) formats offer more playing comfort.

How is the set stored?

Every chess set folds and acts as its own storage box for the 32 pieces — no extra accessory needed.

Is it suitable for learning chess?

Yes, these sets suit a beginner as well as an experienced player — the difference between models is the format and the finish, not the difficulty of play.

It's a gift: which model should I choose?

The travel format (Touriste) suits a more accessible budget or someone who travels often. The Senator and Ambassador formats make a more decorative gift, for a home. Discover our gift ideas too.
