Chessex Pearlescent 30 Sided Dice

Chessex Dice offers beautiful dice in a range of styles, sizes, shapes, and number of sides. One of the more unique types is the 30 sided die, also known as a D30, also known as a Triantakohedron, which provides players with a fun way to get creative during gameplay.

Chessex Dice doesn't have a large selection of D30s so it was exciting news when 5 new colors in the Pearlescent style were released in the Summer of 2019. Very few games call specifically for a D30 but you can use one for however you imagine.

A couple of ideas on what to use a rolled D30 die for:

To determine damage points given to or taken by a character
To establish a day of the month
As a D3 by grouping 1-10 as a roll of 1, 11-20 as a roll of 2, 21-30 as a roll of 3

The 5 available colors are listed below. The images show the die with a roll of 30 and a roll of 1. Click any image to view the product detail page for additional information, and to shop.
