Standalone Chess Pieces — 32-Piece Tournament Sets, 3.5-Inch King — From $77.85
Five standalone chess piece sets — each containing 32 hand-carved natural stone Staunton-form chess pieces at tournament-size King height — for buyers who want genuine natural stone pieces without purchasing a complete chess set.
What every chess figure set includes:
Every chess figure set contains 32 hand-carved natural stone pieces — 16 of each stone material in the chosen color combination — with King at 3.5 inches, Queen at 3 inches, Bishop at 2.75 inches, Knight at 2.75 inches, Rook at 2.75 inches, and Pawn at 2.25 inches. All pieces are in classic Staunton form and confirmed compatible with 16 to 20-inch chess boards. Every set comes with Speshstones branded secure fragile packaging. No board is included. Price range is $77.85 to $79.85 across the five color combinations.
The five chess figure color combinations:
The Travertine and White Chess Figures — 3.5 Inch at $77.85 pairs 16 warm matte travertine pieces against 16 polished white marble pieces — the warmest neutral combination in the chess figure range. The travertine pieces have heavy characteristic natural pitting and the white marble pieces have a smooth polished surface with subtle calcite grey veining. Pairs directly with any Travertine+White or White+Travertine board from the Chess Sets Collection and with the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch in Travertine+White or White+Travertine variants. Best for organic modern and transitional interiors with warm wood tones.
The Travertine and Black Chess Figures — 3.5 Inch at $79.85 pairs 16 warm matte travertine pieces against 16 mirror-polished black marble pieces — the highest-contrast combination in the chess figure range. The deep mirror-gloss black marble pieces against warm matte travertine creates the most dramatic visual piece contrast of any standalone chess figure set in this collection. Pairs directly with any Black+Travertine or Travertine+Black board from the chess catalog. Best for contemporary, minimalist, and dark-toned interiors.
The Travertine and Oceanic Chess Figures — 3.5 Inch at $79.85 pairs 16 warm matte travertine pieces against 16 warm grey-brown oceanic fossil marble pieces — the most organically harmonious combination where both materials are warm earth tones. Every oceanic piece has a different fossil inclusion pattern — no two oceanic chess pieces share an identical surface. Pairs directly with any Travertine+Oceanic or Oceanic+Travertine board from the chess catalog. Best for warm transitional and contemporary warm interiors.
The Travertine and Red Chess Figures — 3.5 Inch at $77.85 pairs 16 warm matte travertine pieces against 16 warm amber-red marble pieces — the warmest all-earth-tone combination where both materials sit within the warm amber-beige palette. The red marble pieces have a semi-translucent warm amber glow in natural light from iron oxide mineral content throughout the stone body. Pairs directly with any Travertine+Red board from the chess catalog. Best for Mediterranean and Tuscan interiors with terracotta and warm stone surfaces.
The Travertine and Green Chess Figures — 3.5 Inch at $79.85 pairs 16 warm matte travertine pieces against 16 banded green onyx pieces — the most visually distinctive combination where green onyx delivers multicolor banded geological character on every piece. Each green onyx piece has a completely different banding arrangement of green, amber, cream, and translucent white — no two pieces are identical across the full 16-piece onyx side. Pairs directly with any Travertine+Green Onyx board from the chess catalog. Best for botanical and eclectic interiors with green plants and warm wood.
Standalone Checker Figures — 32-Piece Sets, 1.25-Inch Diameter — From $49.03
Five standalone checker figure sets — each containing 32 hand-carved natural stone checker discs — for buyers who already own a checkers board and want genuine stone pieces, or who want to use stone checker discs on the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch for both chess and checkers.
What every checker figure set includes:
Every checker figure set contains 32 hand-carved natural stone checker discs — 16 of each stone material in the chosen color combination — with each piece measuring 1.25 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches in height. Every set comes with Speshstones branded secure fragile packaging. No board is included. The sets are suitable for indoor and outdoor use including travel and family board game sessions. Price range is $49.03 to $52.00 across the five color combinations.
The five checker figure color combinations:
The Black and Travertine Checker Figures — 1.25 Inch at $49.03 pairs mirror-polished black marble discs against warm matte travertine discs. This is the highest-contrast checker combination in the collection — the deep gloss black marble against warm matte travertine creates the most visually dramatic piece contrast. Best for contemporary and minimalist interiors where strong material contrast defines the aesthetic.
The Oceanic and Travertine Checker Figures — 1.25 Inch at $52.00 pairs warm grey-brown oceanic fossil marble discs against warm matte travertine discs. This is the most organically complex checker figure set where every oceanic disc has different fossil inclusion patterns — no two oceanic checker discs are visually identical. Best for warm transitional and contemporary warm interiors with warm grey-brown stone surfaces.
The White and Travertine Checker Figures — 1.25 Inch at $49.03 pairs polished white marble discs against warm matte travertine discs. This is the warmest neutral combination — polished clean white against warm beige-cream matte travertine. Best for organic modern, farmhouse, and warm neutral interiors with wood and linen tones.
The Red and Travertine Checker Figures — 1.25 Inch pairs warm amber-red marble discs against warm matte travertine discs. This is the warmest all-earth-tone checker combination where both materials sit within the same warm palette — no cool tones, no dramatic contrast, just warm amber-red and warm travertine beige in organic harmony. Best for Mediterranean and Tuscan interiors.
The Green and Travertine Checker Figures — 1.25 Inch pairs banded multicolor green onyx discs against warm matte travertine discs. This is the most visually distinctive checker combination where every green onyx disc has a different banding arrangement of green, amber, cream, and translucent white. No two green onyx checker discs in the set are visually identical — genuine geological variation that no manufactured alternative can replicate. Best for botanical and eclectic interiors.
How to Choose — Chess Pieces vs Checker Figures vs Complete Sets
Understanding which product type suits your situation before browsing:
Buy chess figures from this collection if you already own a chess board and want to upgrade to genuine natural stone pieces, you own the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch standalone board without pieces, or you want replacement pieces for an existing Speshstones complete chess set. Chess figure sets are $77.85 to $79.85 with no board included.
Buy checker figures from this collection if you already own a checkers board and want to upgrade to genuine natural stone pieces, or you want to use stone checker discs on the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch for both chess and checkers. Checker figure sets are $49.03 to $52.00 with no board included.
Buy a complete chess set instead if you want the full setup — board, pieces, extra queens, and storage — in one purchase. The Marble & Travertine Chess Sets Collection offers 19 complete sets from $72.00 at both 12-inch and 15-inch tournament sizes.
Buy a complete checkers set instead if you want a board and 32 checker pieces together in one purchase. The Checkers Collection offers five complete 15-inch checkers sets at $105.80.
Buy a standalone board instead if you want the board only without pieces — the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch at $88.00 is available in four color variants and is compatible with both the chess figure sets and checker figure sets from this collection.
Compatible Chess Boards — Where to Use These Chess Figures
The 3.5-inch chess figure sets are confirmed compatible with 16 to 20-inch chess boards from the product descriptions. In the Speshstones catalog the following boards are directly compatible:
The Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch at $88.00 is the dedicated standalone board — available in Black+Travertine, Oceanic+Travertine, Travertine+White, and White+Travertine color variants — allowing color-matching between a standalone board and any of these chess figure sets.
All 15-inch complete chess sets in the Marble & Travertine Chess Sets Collection use the same 15-inch board format — their boards are compatible with these replacement or upgrade chess figure sets.
Color pairing guidance — chess figures to standalone board:
For Travertine+White chess figures — pair with the White+Travertine or Travertine+White variant of the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch. The same two materials match across both the board and the pieces.
For Travertine+Black chess figures — pair with the Black+Travertine variant of the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch. The black marble in both products confirms the material match.
For Travertine+Oceanic chess figures — pair with the Oceanic+Travertine variant of the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch. The warm grey-brown oceanic fossil marble appears in both the board tiles and the piece set.
For Travertine+Red chess figures — pair with any warm-toned board from the Chess Sets Collection or the standalone board in the Travertine+White variant for the closest warm neutral coordination.
For Travertine+Green chess figures — pair with the Travertine+White or White+Travertine variant of the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch for the most neutral board surface that lets the banded green onyx pieces read as the dominant visual element during play.
Materials in This Collection
Natural Travertine is present in every product in this collection as one of the two stone materials. Travertine is a sedimentary limestone formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate from natural spring water — creating the warm beige-cream color and heavy natural pitting that defines every travertine piece in this collection. The pitting distribution on each travertine piece differs — no two travertine pieces across any set are visually identical.
White Marble is a metamorphic rock with polished clean white surface and subtle calcite grey veining. Present in Travertine+White chess figures and White+Travertine checker figures — the warmest neutral pairing with travertine in the collection.
Black Marble is metamorphic rock with deep mirror-gloss black surface — the highest-contrast material against travertine. Present in Travertine+Black chess figures and Black+Travertine checker figures — the most dramatically toned pairing available.
Oceanic Marble is metamorphic limestone with warm grey-brown color and fossil inclusions from marine sedimentary material incorporated during geological formation — organic fossil patterns that differ across every individual piece and disc. Present in Travertine+Oceanic chess figures and Oceanic+Travertine checker figures.
Red Marble is metamorphic marble with warm amber-red character from iron oxide mineral content — a semi-translucent warm amber glow visible in natural light. Present in Travertine+Red chess figures and Red+Travertine checker figures — the warmest all-earth-tone pairing where both materials coordinate within the warm amber-beige palette.
Green Onyx is a banded chalcedony and calcite stone formed by slow silica-rich groundwater deposition in alternating mineral layers — creating the characteristic banding of green, amber, cream, and translucent white that runs through every piece in completely different arrangements. Semi-translucent in natural light. Present in Travertine+Green chess figures and Green+Travertine checker figures — the most visually complex and distinctive pairing in the collection.
Why Buy Standalone Natural Stone Chess Pieces
Standard retail chess sets use plastic, resin, or wood pieces. Even premium retail chess sets at significantly higher price points typically use injection-molded resin that produces perfectly identical pieces across the full set. The Speshstones standalone chess figure sets deliver something fundamentally different — 32 individually hand-carved genuine natural stone pieces where no two pieces share an identical surface pattern.
For buyers who own an existing chess board and want to upgrade piece quality — whether from plastic to stone, from resin to stone, or from standard wood to natural stone — the standalone chess figure sets at $77.85 to $79.85 deliver tournament-size 3.5-inch King height Staunton pieces in genuine travertine and marble without requiring the purchase of a new board.
For buyers who own one of the Marble Chess Board — 15 Inch standalone boards or any of the boards from the complete chess sets in the Chess Sets Collection, these standalone chess figure sets provide color-coordinated replacement or additional piece sets in five genuine stone material combinations.
