Description

The casting method used to create this shiny board involves making a wax prototype, which is then coated with a specially prepared plaster. The interior is filled with liquid metal (in this case, real bronze), replacing the original wax form.

Moors – today residents of Mauritania, Algeria, and Morocco – still occupied the Iberian Peninsula during medieval times and had a significant influence on the architecture and culture of present-day Spain and Portugal. In architecture, the Moorish style is characterized by rich ornamentation, inlaid floors, carved capitals, and columns. The exquisite and luxurious chessboard is decorated in a lavish and unusual manner. A glance at this small work of art reveals gold embellishments (24-karat gold!) and shimmering surfaces that reflect beautiful chess pieces.

The entire piece is supported by decorative horse-heads in a style that perfectly complements the figures.

This exceptional chess collection, suitable for both active players and collectors, will appeal to lovers of intricate design. Eye-catching details, gold accents, and unique forms. Looking for a gift for a chess enthusiast? This set makes an excellent present. It will be a wonderful and luxurious family keepsake.

Italian manufacturer Italfama creates unique chess sets, chess tables in various sizes, and figures (from classic, modern, to entirely original figures stylized as historical characters) designed for active players, collectors, and art lovers who enjoy surrounding themselves with beautiful objects.
