Our Basic Checker Set includes our basic checker board and 24 plain wooden checkers. The checker board is crafted from 1/2" thick high quality birch plywood and measures 15" square. Printed playing area is sealed with clear non-toxic finish. 12 black and 12 red checkers measure approximately 1-5/8" diameter by 5/16" thick. Both basic red and black checkers are engraved with a crown on one side so instead of stacking the checkers to "king" a player simply flip the checker over. A cloth pouch for storing the checkers is included.
