FAQ

What wood is used for the chess pieces?

The chessmen are crafted from Burnt Golden Rosewood (dark pieces) and Burnt Natural Boxwood (light pieces). Both are high-grade woods that have been treated with a burning process to produce their distinctive warm, rich tones. House of Staunton uses only the finest wood grades for their master artisan-carved sets.

Why does this set include 34 pieces instead of 32?

The set includes 34 chessmen because two extra Queens are provided - one for each color. This allows for proper pawn promotion during play, so if your pawn reaches the opposite end of the board you have a spare Queen ready. House of Staunton introduced this as a standard over 10 years ago, and it is now considered a hallmark of a complete, tournament-quality chess set.

Can I choose the finish of the chess box?

Yes! The chess box is included free with the combination and is available in several wood finishes: Mahogany, Red Burl, Brazilian Rosewood, Bubinga Burl, Elm Burl, Golden Heart, Macassar Ebony, and Bird's Eye Maple (Bird's Eye Maple carries an additional charge). Select your preferred finish when adding to your cart.

What is the difference between the Gloss Board and the Satin Board combination?

Both combinations use the same Blackwood and Olivewood squares and the same Dubrovnik chess pieces. The difference is the surface finish of the chessboard itself. The Gloss Board has a shiny, reflective finish that makes the wood grain pop and gives the set a formal, elegant look. The Satin Board has a softer, matte-style sheen that many players prefer for reduced glare during long games. Both are equally high quality - it comes down to personal preference.

Is this set appropriate for tournament play?

Absolutely. The Dubrovnik Series is a full tournament-sized chess set with a 3.75" King height and 2.5" board squares - dimensions that meet standard tournament specifications. The pieces are heavily weighted for stability, and the hand-carved craftsmanship ensures each piece is easy to distinguish and handle during competitive play.

Does the set come ready to use, or is assembly required?

The set arrives ready to use with no assembly required. The chess pieces, board, and box are all included and fully finished. Simply unbox, arrange your pieces, and you are ready to play.
