The unmistakable feel of these heavily weighted pieces gives a positive touch to your game. Extra weight near the base of the pieces makes them very stable, highly recommended for blitz chess. These pieces were reproduced in a more brilliant yellow color for 2018 and increased in size marginally to the current 3.75" tall.
Pieces are finished with real green felt and weigh in at 3lbs 14oz in total, one of the heaviest sets available. They do come with extra queens as well and the total set weight includes those extra queens.
