The unmistakable feel of these heavily weighted pieces gives a positive touch to your game. This slightly fatter style makes them easier to grasp. Not only that, the extra weight near the base of the pieces makes them very stable.... highly recommended for blitz chess. Pieces have real green felt on bottom
