By Ruth Brown


The market is nowadays flooded with chess sets some of which can be used to play while others can serve as decoration in your living room. There are times when they can be used in the library or as center places for study. Depending on your choice, they can still be taken as heirlooms. Whichever use you want to give them, the following tips will help you when selecting expensive chess sets original.

What is your reason for acquiring the set piece in the first place? You may want the set pieces for playing or even for decorative purposes. In the case that you want to acquire them so that you can play with them, then you should consider realistic games available. Select a chess piece that will suit your style and taste as well.

Consider the tournament guidelines. It is not necessary to examine the size of the game pieces to the board unless you are using it for an official match. The general guideline is that the king's base needs to be 78% of the square's width. You can get this by dividing the kings base diameter by 0.78. This gives the proper size of the square. This information will help you when you are purchasing the pieces separate from the board.

One important factor to consider is the durability. If you were intent to be using it on a daily basis, you should get quality and strong pieces. You will be better f with heavy plastics. Maybe your intention is to have something that you can all over, you should choose the small and compact sets. That way you are sure to get the games that are magnetic or are pegged so that they can be protected from the jolts and bumps while you are carrying them.

Make special considerations when getting the wooden sets. When purchasing the set made from wood, then choose wood of excellent quality. Wood is a great material for a game. They are impressive to look at. The pieces also have a very solid feel. However, these sets tend to be hefty and therefore, are not ideal for traveling. The wood game can also be a great addition to your office.

Look at uniformity. Before you buy the pieces, have a good look at them first. Look into the Knights as they accrue to 50% of the total price of any game. The cost is inclusive of the finish of that game, its quality, and uniformity of these pieces. Look at the design of that crown of your king. Keep in mind of the most important pieces of such a game: the king and knights.

You should also consider getting the beautiful sets. Those that are made from bone china or crystal are termed as glass. They are mostly used for decorating. There are, however, those glass sets that are practical. Crystal pieces are weighty while the China ones will feel light unless their base is weighted. These are good to look at but will break when they drop. They are also easily dirtied by fingerprints and dust.

The above information makes it clear that if you invest in a good quality game piece, it will be worth your while and you will not feel disappointed. There are many designs out there. The hard part is not finding a game piece but finding the correct piece that will make it worthwhile.
