Gifts for chess and game lovers

Hoyle's of Oxford, a father-and-daughter games shop on Oxford's High Street, has been sourcing ornamental chess sets since 1975. It's named after Edmond Hoyle, whose rules of games have been in print since 1760.

Alongside more than 200 chess sets, you'll find traditional and vintage games, playing cards, and puzzles for players and collectors alike.

Every piece is in stock at the time of loading and links straight to the shop. If you buy, the shop may pay us a small commission, at no cost to you. How we work
