Review: Beautiful product - In the description of this product it states 'Best chess for the price' and I have to say it certainly lives up to its expectations. When I opened up the packaging I was warmly greeted with a charming yet gorgeous Chess and Draughts set. The pieces are of good sturdy quality but yet still have a delicate and detailed feel to them as well as the board they play on. The pieces are stored in the board and they fit in with ease with plenty of room for comfort. Also with this product it comes in a neatly fitted white cardboard box, now I know it may not seem much, but I am planning on going to University this year and hope to bring my Chess set with me so this box will act marvellously protecting the folded board inside, which is of course ideal. This product truly is unique and I am so happy that I found this offer I can't wait to play with this set over the years with my friends and family developing and forming friendships, while challenging them at the same time. Review: A brillent chess set - This Chess set is well worth 5 stars, It is the best wooden chess set we saw at the best price for what we where looking for in buying a chess set, It all folds away nice and neatly within its own box. It is a good size to so that your not straining to see the peaces. We have took this set camping with us and cause it is well protected it pacted away no bother. I would say some of the stained wood could be darker in both the black and whight peaces, you see this with the knights most. For my first good size chess set im not compling. I would recomend this chess set to anyone who wants a good set and would like it portable to. ## Features - A heavy, solid and robust board that will provide years or decades of use. - BEAUTIFULLY MADE pieces from Cherry Tree-lovely honey colour - Instruction especially made for young player's included - Made from solid wood - TRADITIONAL GAME THAT CAN BE A LOVELY GIFT ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00COMQF3I | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 175,399 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) 1,394 in Traditional Games | | Brand Name | Prime Chess | | Colour | Black,wood | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (2,115) | | Edition | Standard Edition | | Educational Objective | Skill development and learning | | Genre | Family | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 37 x 37 x 2.7 centimetres | | Item Dimensions L x W | 35L x 35W centimetres | | Item Weight | 862 g | | Manufacturer | Woodeyland | | Manufacturer Part Number | 4383576 | | Material Type | Wood | | Maximum Age Recommendation | 144 | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 36 | | Model Number | PRIME-CHW01 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 2 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Set Name | Prime Chess | | Size | 35 x 35 cm | | Theme | Traditional | | UPC | 799632050278 777904383576 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Prime Chess - **Genre:** Family - **Material:** Wood - **Number of players:** 2 - **Theme:** Traditional ## Images ![Hand Crafted Cherry Wooden Chess and Draughts Set 35 x 35 Centimeter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615Btk87kPL.jpg) ![Hand Crafted Cherry Wooden Chess and Draughts Set 35 x 35 Centimeter - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ZpnnkID6L.jpg) ![Hand Crafted Cherry Wooden Chess and Draughts Set 35 x 35 Centimeter - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61QrpENT9yL.jpg) ![Hand Crafted Cherry Wooden Chess and Draughts Set 35 x 35 Centimeter - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61jKk0rJUyL.jpg) ![Hand Crafted Cherry Wooden Chess and Draughts Set 35 x 35 Centimeter - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61T0InfOLRL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: are there any basic instrutions included ?** A: No instructions included ! **Q: Is this a folding chess set?** A: Yes it is **Q: Is the box made from wood?

The board and pieces were intact, complete, and of decent quality - not a 5* display set, but fully stained and as good as I'd expected for the price. As others have said, there's no bag to hold the draught counters when the board is opened out to play - I've stored them elsewhere. It's a good-sized board. The pieces are light but probably robust enough to survive in the felt-lined compartment if they get rattled a bit. ## Frequently Bought Together - Prime Chess Hand Crafted Cherry Wooden Chess And Draughts Set 35cm x 35cm - How to Win At Chess: The Ultimate Guide for Beginners and Beyond - Logical Chess : Move By Move: Every Move Explained (Batsford Chess Book) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/47905171-hand-crafted-cherry-wooden-chess-and-draughts-set-35-x](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/47905171-hand-crafted-cherry-wooden-chess-and-draughts-set-35-x) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
