A mid-20th-century chess set by Israeli author Hans Teppich that showcases his distinctive design aesthetic. Crafted from richly toned brass, the 32 stylized, minimalist pieces feature clean lines and a focus on form over intricate details.

Teppich's artistic journey began in Germany, where he studied a diverse range of disciplines, including woodcarving, metalwork, and interior design. This multifaceted training is evident in the precision and craftsmanship of this chess set. The elegant, pared-down figures invite the player to engage with the essence of the game, creating a timeless, contemplative experience.
