About Boxwood Staunton No. 6 Chess Pieces

Boxwood Staunton No. 6 Chess Pieces are a classic full-size Staunton set with real historical character. Staunton is the international standard used in official competitions because the shapes are universally recognized by players everywhere—and this particular interpretation has its own legacy. Designed by Indústrias del Ajedrez and produced for decades, it remains a reference model in the chess world and is often nicknamed the “Iberian” style.

The standout detail is the knight: a highly recognizable, expressive carving that takes serious craftsmanship. These pieces are handmade through more than 30 separate operations, and crafted from boxwood—a demanding material that rewards careful work and fine finishing. The result is a set that feels both tournament-correct and collector-worthy.
