I'm currently making a chess set and need to know how much each individual piece in a professional chess set weighs. If anyone could weigh each of their pieces that would be super helpful. Thanks! happy

I have a House of Staunton Chess set . Each piece weighs roughly the same amount . I would warrant a guess of about 2000g(2kg) for each peace though the king(of course)may weigh more .

There is no set weight for chess pieces. As the weight and size can very from set to chess set. And material to material.

I will weight one of my HOS chess sets and post below.

King - 100 grams

Queen - 90 grams

Rook - 66 grams

Bishop -54 grams

Knight - 62 grams

Pawn - 40 grams

Thank you so much!! This is going to be super useful! I'll let you know how the chess set turns out! happy.png
