Solid Wooden Chess Set for the Blind and Visually Impaired – 3.75″ King in Sheeshamwood and Boxwood
Designed specially for blind players, the board has raised squares and pieces that work well for the blind or those with very limited vision. The 16″ square chess board with 1.8″ squares and large 3.75″ Staunton model pieces make it very tactile. The pieces stay in place well with pegs on the base of each piece that fit all 64 squares and keep the pieces steady.
To differentiate the dark pieces from the light pieces, the dark pieces are equipped with small points, both subtle yet instantly and easily distinguished from the light pieces.
