Giant Chess Set

Hand-turned by our master turner out of kiln-dried and seasoned hardwood, these magnificent garden Chess pieces are weighted for stability and lacquered to withstand a sudden downpour of English rain!

A complete set of 34 pieces (yes, we include extra Queens for Castling) are raised slightly by an inserted rubber ring to remove contact with the damp ground for longevity.

This set will be the talk of your parties and a great amusement either in the garden or on a beautiful marble entrance hall. Classic; understated elegance and attention to detail, second to none. “One instinctively knows when something is right”.

Handmade to order over a 4 to 6 month period in hardwoods of your choice – each piece is individually boxed so they can be stowed safely away when the weather turns is inclement.

Price available on request – this is due to the different wood finishes it’s available in.

No plastic or stone sets here our giant chess set or garden chess set is carved like the original standard size Staunton chessmen; the beauty of these is they are HUGE, the king is King 24″ (600mm).

Giant Chess Set / Garden Chess Set

Your summers won’t ever be the same again; our garden chess sets make playing a game of chess with the family a little different. Unlike the plastic alternatives, our garden chess set is made out of wood making look more luxurious and sturdy.

Like all of our products here at Geoffrey Parker, these stunning chess pieces are made to order so can take some time to hand carve. Please let us know if you have a deadline such as a wedding etc and we’ll do everything we can to complete the order in time. When ordering our team will be able to provide an estimate time frame but usually, they take around 6 months.
