Hi all,

Looking to buy a one-and-done chess set. My grandfather had a drueke board and pieces (I believe) that I have played on, which I love. I want to get my own heirloom-quality set. Can anyone make recommendations?

Thanks!

Good luck on the search.

Best is something you’ll have to discover yourself.
Is it something you want to play regularly or display?
Checkout what people are buying what are you liking?
What company offers excellent service is key too.
So hang out for a while and enjoy the chase.

I’m with schachm, use this forum, the interwebs and some local shops - if you can get to ‘em - we are back in five day lockdown where I am - so no ability to visit shops here but this forum and the web are a great source of info. Enjoy the search... and the set .... when you make your choice. 👍
