About the Item
Chess set, brass, bronze, Italy, 1960s
Wonderful, modernist chess set made in the style of Italian artist Alberto Giacometti. The exceptional game of chess has a stunning look. Each piece is casted in bronze making it solid. Therefore, they are very heavy and of high quality. All items are highly detailed and can be recognized as a specific character of the game, making every part becomes a sculpture or art work in their own right. Moreover, it is visible these pieces are the result of quality craftsmanship. The hammered brass and bronze board and the pieces itself show stunning patina, making the piece even more unique.
