Each piece has a felted base for smooth movement and a standard design with a 3 3\/4\" tall King on a 1 1\/2\" base. Sold individually by color, you need two half sets (in two colors) to complete a full set. These plastic pieces match the size and style of the Basic Club Chess Pieces but come in a variety of bright, fun colors. They're a lighter, more affordable alternative to the Heavy Tournament Chess Pieces while remaining tournament legal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAre These Pieces Tournament Legal?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, every piece meets official chess tournament standards for size, shape, and weight distribution.
