The Bozart chess set, designed by renowned designer Karim Rashid, is a striking Y2K design icon from 2001, a decorative object that blurs the boundaries between play and modern art.
This specific design is known for its flowing, organic forms and the striking use of fluorescent colors that glow under blacklight.
The set is crafted from high-quality plastic and rests on a transparent plexiglass chessboard. The chess pieces are rendered in vibrant orange and green, where traditional forms have been reduced to minimalist, sculptural silhouettes characteristic of Rashid's style.
The use of materials and the finish reflect the designer's innovative approach to everyday objects, combining functionality with a strong visual impact.
The object is in excellent condition and has retained its original clarity and structural integrity. The fluorescent properties of the plastic are fully intact, ensuring a dynamic display when exposed to UV light. The set is complete with all original pieces and the accompanying board. This chess set serves as a striking centerpiece in a modern or eclectic interior. The object comes into its own particularly well on a coffee table or in an open display cabinet, where it can be appreciated both as a functional game and as a sculptural work of art.
