The Giant Chess set consists of 32 extremely high quality strong moulded plastic pieces in a simply classic design that will become a instant hit where ever this is placed and are design to be tough and durable.

The pieces come in three sections, the base come as two parts and clip together so that they can be filled with either sand or water, making the pieces weighty enough to be kept outside all the time. The third section is the topper or crown section that identifies each piece. The pieces each have a base diameter of 24cm and vary in height from 43cm (Pawn) up to 64cm (King) the pieces are produced in the classic colours of Black and White and make a real feature and talking point in any garden.
