Harry Potter Wizard Chess Set
The Harry Potter Wizard Chess set was introduced in 2002 and retired shortly thereafter, making it a collectible. The extra durable plastic chess pieces are replica's of the chess pieces seen in Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone. The heavy duty fold out chess board depicts the same colors as the chess board in the movie.
Although this Harry Potter Wizard Chess Set was created to be played with by children, the fact that it's a collectible gives it a higher price tag. If you're looking for cheaper Harry Potter Wizard Chess Sets for your children to play with, scroll just a little further down and you'll find a non-collectors set that's more reasonably priced.

The Lewis Chessmen
were the inspiration behind the chess pieces seen in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
The Lewis Chessmen are some of the oldest surviving chess pieces. They were found in 1831 on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland and dated back to the 12th century. Most of the 78 pieces are carved from walrus ivory. Most of the collection is on display at the British Museum in London.
Because of the British Museums help with creating the molds, these chess pieces are the closest reproduction to the actual Lewis Chessmen available. They're made of ceramic and then coated with antique ivory and maple brown finish. The walnut and maple chess board is a perfect match to the chess pieces.
