AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Contemporary Black & White Artistic Chess Set – Limited Edition of 30 Copies – Creation Signed Dominique Kleiner

This chess set is a contemporary artistic creation, designed and produced by Dominique Kleiner, a Norman artist, whose work is part of a continuous exploration of the object, sculpture, and functional design.

The artist revisits the chessboard here as a territory of plastic expression, where each piece becomes a sculpture in its own right. The spiraled, openwork shapes of the pieces have been conceived to create a sense of movement, rhythm, and balance, while preserving perfect legibility of the game.

Each type of piece — king, queen, bishop, knight, rook, and pawn — has its own identity, while fitting into a global harmony. The game thus offers a fluid, elegant, contemporary visual reading, intended as much for the eye as for use.

Artistic work and color application

The pieces are molded in resin, then fully hand-painted by the artist. The choice of deep black and bright white is not incidental: it reinforces the graphic character of the game and highlights the purity of the sculpted volumes.

Matte and satin finishes provide subtle depth, highlighting the reliefs, solids, and hollows. Each piece shows slight variations, signatures of artisanal craftsmanship, guaranteeing the uniqueness of each copy.

The board acts as a true case, offering a balanced contrast between geometric rigor and sculptural expressiveness.

Artistic and decorative value

Beyond its function as a game, this chessboard possesses strong decorative value. It naturally asserts itself as a collectible object, capable of elevating a contemporary interior, an office, a living room, or a display window.

Produced in a strictly limited edition of 30 copies, this set is aimed at art lovers, collectors, and enthusiasts of fine objects. Its rarity, the quality of materials, and the manual workmanship confer on each copy a patrimonial dimension.

This is an object meant to be displayed as much as played, straddling the line between sculpture and design.
