Did you know that chess is the most practiced sport by blind people?
Here you have a complete wooden chess set adapted to the needs of blind people. With a square size of 30mm, it is specially designed for all those players with visual impairment who have to recognize the pieces and squares by touch.

The design of the pieces includes a different finish on the top that will allow to identify the white pieces from the black ones by touch, not only by their standard shape, so it will be easy for the player to locate the pieces at all times.
To distinguish the white squares from the black ones, and therefore, to determine the entire playing area, this board places the black squares at a different raised level than the whites. In this simple way, the entire playing field will be identifiable and the direction of the diagonals, rows and columns can be followed with total security.
The wooden pieces have a small mast at their base that fits into each hole that is centered in the squares. This joint makes it possible that when touching the pieces of the board, they do not fall nor overturn, avoiding any confusion.
We are proud to offer a product that promotes the inclusion of blind people in the exciting world of chess. With this set we help people with visual disabilities to enjoy this millennia-old game autonomously and participate in games with friends, family or in competitions.
