Chessex Borealis D6 Dice Set: 16mm Sky Blue/White

A Flash of Northern Sky on Every Roll

The Chessex Borealis Sky Blue/White d6 set catches the light with that signature Borealis shimmer — a translucent, glittery finish that gives each die a luminous, almost frozen quality. The sky blue base swirls with an inner sparkle, and the white ink numerals stand out crisply against it. These aren't just functional dice; they're the kind that draw eyes across the table and prompt the inevitable "where did you get those?"

The Borealis Finish

Chessex's Borealis line is defined by its translucent resin body infused with a fine glitter suspension that catches and reflects light from within. The effect shifts subtly depending on the angle — sometimes icy and pale, sometimes catching a deeper blue. The white ink numerals are cleanly applied, machine-printed for consistent readability across all twelve dice. These are standard 16mm d6s, sized right for board games, wargames, and RPG dice pools alike.

What's in the Set

This set includes 12 standard d6 dice at 16mm — the go-to size for most tabletop applications. Twelve is a practical count that covers large dice pools for games like Shadowrun, Vampire: The Masquerade, or any system that calls for handfuls of six-siders at once. It's also a solid top-up for board game collections where stock dice have gone missing over the years.

Who'll Love These

Chessex is the hobby standard for a reason — consistent sizing, reliable ink, and a colour range that spans nearly every aesthetic. The Sky Blue/White Borealis set is a strong pick for RPG players building a themed dice collection, wargamers who want matching pools that are easy to track on a busy table, or anyone shopping for a gift that looks far more considered than a generic set. The Borealis shimmer makes these a step above everyday acrylics without crossing into the premium price territory of metal or hand-poured resin.
