Ethical Importance

Sunrise Chess & Games place ethics before anything else. We believe that true product quality isnt just the end appearance of a product but it is the entire process from beginning to end. This is why we source our raw materials from sustainable forestry and believe in fair treatment to the environment, our employees and customers.

Own Label, Own Brand and Post Purchase Advertisement

The specifications of our Staunton chess pieces and chess boards meet the requirements of The World Chess Federation (FIDE). They are appropriate and suitable for chess tournaments. Our selection of chess equipment carrier bags and suit cases as well as chess clocks and chess books are highly recommended to construct a professional chess set.
