There are almost as many different types and styles of chess sets as there are chess players. It may be hard to decide upon a particular set, but it’s relatively easy to narrow your choices down to a particular category. Here’s a look at the major categories that are available everywhere:

Wood is a great material for chess sets. The pieces, pawns and board can be made from less expensive oak, pine or walnut, or you can choose exotic woods like teak, ebony, or cocobolo.
