I bought this storage box for my Mogul Staunton Luxury set from Royal Chess Mall. Before purchasing, I asked their customer service to help check the fit, and they were kind enough to do a trial fit for me. RCM customer service are the best. This is a large set, with a king height of 4.6 inches (118mm) and a 1.9 inch (49mm) base diameter, so I was concerned about space but it fits perfectly.
There is enough room for all the pieces without forcing anything in, and they sit securely without rattling. Even with the larger bases, everything feels well protected and organized. See the first three photos for the Mogul set.
What impressed me most is the capacity. The box can also hold two full tournament sized sets with German knight style pieces. Each set has a king height of 3.9 inches (98mm) and a base diameter of 1.4 inches (36mm). The last photo shows two full sets including all extra queens, and each half of the box fits one full set with all light and dark pieces.
The felt lining on the base protects the pieces well, and the divider keeps everything organized. The golden rosewood looks great in person, and the sliding lid is smooth and closes securely thanks to the magnetic closure.
One small improvement is that the inner side walls are not felt lined. It would be better if the entire interior was fully lined for added protection, especially for higher end pieces.
If you are looking for a budget friendly and compact storage solution, this box does the job very well. For those who prefer a more premium or luxury style storage, there are other options available, but this covers the essentials perfectly.
Overall, this is a solid and well built storage box. It works great for large sets around 4.5 to 4.6 inches king height, and even for multiple standard sets. Highly recommended.

Even though this storage box is simply for storage, it’s a masterpiece in itself. I’m looking forward to many years of usage. Let’s have we got this box looks it’ll be something on display or not in use versus in the cupboard. There’s a magnet which make sure that it gets close enough that it closes nice and snug. Very satisfying just to open and close.

Really nice box. It's well built, nicely finished and aesthetically handsome. It is nice enough to keep out as part of the room decor. I really like the magnetic closure. Other boxes I have slide open too easily.

A very stable box. Also comfortably fits my 4.6 inch pieces. I like the feeling of opening and closing it. The inside is not as perfect compared to the quality of other items from this shop. Also the bottom of the box is not the same thick wood. It’s a super thin sheet glued to the foundation material. Is it even a print? What’s the base material? I did stick some felt underneath, so I can place it on my chessboard.
