About

1. Product description: The “Chess” center table is made of high gloss walnut root veneer and polished brass. The king and the horse are chiselled by a jeweller, he does a remarkable job in brass with high levels of detail. The brass is hand polished for hours until its shine is in perfect condition. In the end, the brass is protected with a high-end anti-stain varnish to prevent oxidations. Bessa prides itself on creating handmade functional art furniture built to order by highly skilled Portuguese artisans. 2. Inspiration: Limited edition 1/50 Chess was invented in Asia about 1500 years ago, but it was in the 18th century that modern chess was born and implanted in Europe. The chess table is inspired by the chess board and the game’s most important move, the checkmate! The chess table depicts the ultimate play in which the horse defeats the king, who metaphorically melts into a space that recreates a battlefield. These pieces were designed by Bessa and hand carved. A piece of art and design that recreates one of the most ancestral and strategic games of civilization. 3. Product Dimensions: W 145cm (57.1") H (table top) 31cm (12.2") + (horse) 29cm (11.4") D 145cm (57.1") 4.
