A Classic Chinese Strategy Game, Made for the Journey
Bring the timeless strategy of Chinese Chess (Xiangqi) wherever you go. This travel set combines carved solid birch wood pieces with a soft, roll-up leather board, creating a compact set that is easy to play at home, take on a trip, or give as a meaningful gift.
Xiangqi is a traditional Chinese strategy game known for its distinctive pieces, tactical play, and deep strategic thinking. Each match brings together seven types of pieces — General, Advisor, Elephant, Horse, Chariot, Cannon, and Soldier — on a board designed for fast, thoughtful play.
Carved Birch Wood Pieces
Each chess piece is made from solid birch wood and features carved Chinese characters rather than printed markings. The natural wood grain and carved details give the pieces a warm, tactile feel while adding a traditional character to the set.
- Material: Solid birch wood
- Piece size: 1.5" diameter × 0.47" thick (38 × 12 mm)
- Piece options: 40#, 50#, and 60#
- Board: Foldable leather board
- Board size: 15.7" × 14.6" (40 × 37 cm)
- Included: Xiangqi rulebook
Foldable Leather Travel Board
The soft leather board rolls or folds easily for storage and transport. It takes up little space in a backpack, suitcase, or carry-on, making this Chinese Chess travel set suitable for trips, game nights, parks, cafés, and casual play with friends and family.
Choose Your Storage Box
Choose the presentation and storage option that best fits your needs:
Birch Wood Storage Box
A more substantial option for organizing and protecting your chess pieces at home or displaying the set between games.
