3 Inch Rosewood Pegged Mini Travel Chess Set

Well made chess set a bit small for my hands but kids love it

I bought this little chess set for travelling around a couple of weeks ago. Perfect size, lovely made wooden little chess set. The retailer has been very helpful too so thank you! I will be packing this in my backpack on every trip...!

A travel chess set with pieces so small they are indistinguishable from each other and so loose in their holes that they fall freely out with the slightest disturbance.

I find the set too small. I admit that I had seen the reference "3 inch" but I never thought it applied to the actual dimensions of the set, which looks larger in the photograph. Not only the pieces are so close to each other that it is difficult to pick them, but also the way they were carved, so small in size, makes it difficult to distinguish one from the other, the knight being the clear example.Considering these drawbacks I would not recommend it to other persons.RegardsJosé Augusto Simões

A very sweet little chess set. Its beautifully made and, while it might be a bit tiny for real play its a lovely decorative item. A word of warning- the pieces are loose in the holes and will come rattling around in the box. Open the set with the lid pointing downwards to catch all the pieces in the cover if you don't want to grovel around the floor on your hands and knees!

It's well made but actually too small and fiddly to be able to play on. Because of their diminutive size, the pieces are quite difficult to tell apart.

very happy with present for friend

The set is really nice, a lot of work gone into it but for me its too small, very hard to identify the pieces, the bishops, queen and king are very similar. Also its hard to grab the pieces.

No idea where this is. I wanted to travel with it for my daughter. Going to have to go without it now.

Like in the topic. They look wonderful, quality is very high, wood sits together like made from one peace.Shipping was very very fast, from England to Germany! The traveling time was essential for me, as present giver.It perfectly arrived on time, directly before my going, like it was written.Very glad!

Schlecht verarbeitet und die Schachtel schließt nicht selbstständig, so dass man schnell die Figuren verliert.Für eine Reisespiel ist das nicht so schön...
