AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Spectacular jewelery chess table, Persian model, of unique design and crafted with care for its shapes from the second half of the 20th century. It has its own style inspired by the knight pieces of chess in gilded brass, which guard the four transparent cylindrical pillars that support the table’s structure and on which rests a square tempered glass with chipped corners that make the table very striking and elegant.
The board is handmade with white and black squares and a shiny decoration, with perfect dimensions, and sits in the lower part of the table awaiting placement on top to organize the games. It measures 40 cm high, 50 cm wide and deep, and is in excellent condition although it shows some signs of aging, almost imperceptible.
The lot includes a beautiful set of pieces made of boxwood; the darker pieces are ebonized and hand-polished to guarantee a clean finish, while the lighter pieces are carved from calibrated boxwood. Of course, all the pieces are a true pleasure to touch. They also have balanced weight and Staunton measurements ranging from 4.5 to 7 cm, which reach the kings, making it an exclusive and very striking set for decoration and luxury environments. Perfect for stylish players and glamorous games that will make the owner envied. Admire the provided photographs that form part of the description.
It will be carefully shipped, packed, and sent with tracking.
