Why Chrome Changes the Game

A chrome chess set is not just a game. It is a conversation piece. The mirror finish reflects the room, the board, and the opponent sitting across from you. These sets are designed for people who want their chess board to look as sharp as their play.

Our chrome pieces are cast from the same zinc alloy base as our metallic line, then electroplated with a chromium finish that produces a true mirror surface. The result is a set that gleams under ambient lighting, catches movement, and turns a coffee table into a focal point.

Despite the reflective surface, these pieces are built for real play. The weight is identical to our metallic line, the felt bases protect your board, and the chromium plating is sealed with a clear coat that resists fingerprints and light scratching.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do chrome pieces show fingerprints easily?
Less than you would expect. Our clear-coat sealant reduces fingerprint visibility significantly. A quick wipe with a microfiber cloth between games keeps them spotless.
Are chrome sets heavier than wooden sets?
Yes. Chrome pieces weigh about the same as our metallic line (4-5 oz per king). This is roughly double the weight of a comparable wooden king. The added weight improves stability on the board.
Can I mix chrome and metallic pieces on the same board?
Absolutely. Some customers order chrome pieces for one side and matte metallic for the other. It creates a striking visual contrast during play.
How durable is the chrome finish?
The chromium electroplating is extremely durable under normal use. It resists light scratching and does not chip. Dropping pieces on hard surfaces can create small dents in the zinc base, but the chrome coating itself holds up well.
Is the glass board option tempered?
Yes. All glass boards are tempered safety glass. If broken (which is rare), they fracture into small, rounded pieces rather than sharp shards.
