25 cm folding magnetic wooden chess set

This 25 cm folding magnetic chess set combines an inlaid wooden board with pieces that store inside the closed case. With a stated king height of 44 mm, it offers an intermediate size for playing at home or taking your set along. The pieces and board stay together after the game.

An intermediate-sized folding magnetic chess set

The 25 cm model suits players looking for a portable set with larger pieces than a small pocket case. It can accompany a weekend away, an evening with friends or a game on a side table. Your choice mainly depends on the space available and the size of pieces you like to handle.

The magnetic function helps hold the pieces on the board. Wilson Jeux presents it as useful for travel, particularly by train. Even so, place the case on a stable surface and leave space around it to set down captured pieces and see the position clearly.

Inlaid wood and built-in storage

The distributor describes the board as marquetry using two wood species. According to the current product page and 2026 catalogue, the white pieces are boxwood and the black pieces acacia. The contrast of light and dark tones recalls traditional chess sets in a version that folds away.

A fitted interior allows the pieces to be stored individually, limiting knocks between them during transport. Each piece goes back into its own place before the two halves of the board close. The Wilson Jeux catalogue states that this range is handmade and that this size comes in a printed box.

Dimensions to know

For games you take time to share

Use the set for a friendly game or to study a position. You can play a whole game or move a few pieces to explain a move without keeping a large board on the table permanently. Count the pieces before returning them to their compartments. Keep any care instructions supplied with the set; no specific cleaning method is stated here. The 25 cm format allows flexible use, between a set at home and one for travel.
