Product description
This fascinating metal chess set, designed by Christoferus Sklavenitis, draws on Minoan motifs. The detailed design of the pieces reflects the rich visual language of ancient Greek art, making the set a special collector's item.
The ensemble is made of solid metal, patinated in two different colors—gold and silver—to distinguish the two sides. The pieces, including stylized warriors, horses, and mythological figures, have a maximum height of 14 cm. The archaic silhouette and textured surface lend the pieces an authentic, historical feel.
The set is in good condition and displays a beautiful, age-appropriate patina that emphasizes the antique character of the pieces. The solid construction ensures the stability of each piece.
Two pieces have damage: the gold queen is missing an arm, and the king is missing its feather. The metal shows some wear.
Whether used as a functional chess set or as a sculptural decorative object, this set enhances both classic and eclectic interiors. It looks particularly good on an elegant side table or in an illuminated display case.
