Here's a picture contrasting the boxwood pieces with the budrosewood pieces:

Featuring a triple-weighted (3.8 ounces) 4" King, this set is made in both traditional boxwood (white pieces) and budrosewood (opposing pieces).The rooks have additional turret caps supplied loose, so a player can change the look of some of the pieces. The queen has a very intricately carved coronet and the bishops have deep, broad mitres

The base diameter is 1 3/4" and a rosewood board with 2 1/8" squares is recommended and offered as an option as shown.

This is a 34 piece set and supplied with extra queens as standard. We would recommend that you consider purchasing the optional leather tray storage case to individually protect the pieces and our luxury chess board.
