AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Chess set designed by Karim Rashid, collector in its altuglas case and original box.
The pawns are sleek with an elegant design, resin with a rubbery touch.
The chessboard is cut from orange and green outlined circles.
This new interpretation of a classic chess game is designed by the world-renowned artist/designer Karim Rashid. The softly luminescent chess pieces are pleasant to touch and store easily inside the beautifully designed transparent acrylic chessboard.
Karim RashidKarim Rashid is a Canadian-American designer of Egyptian origin, born in Cairo on September 18, 1960. He was raised in England and Canada.
He moved to conquer New York in 1993 and opened his own label. A fan of bright colors, clean shapes, and innovative materials, many objects and places have passed through his hands.
He reinvents everyday tools, restaurants, hotels, shops, and even a Naples metro station! Famous brands (Kenzo, Prada, ...) trust him to design the packaging of their product. Karim Rashid quickly established himself as the designer of the last 50 years.
Chess, or the chess game, is a board game for two players on a board called a “chessboard” consisting of sixty-four squares, 32 light and 32 dark squares (here orange and green).
Players take turns moving one of their sixteen pieces, light for the white side, dark for the black side.
Each player starts with a king, a queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights and eight pawns.
The aim of the game is to give the opponent checkmate, a situation in which the king is in check with no possible remedy.
Rare and authentic chess set designed by Karim Rashid, from the BOZART Toys by Artists brand, in very good condition, showing a few rare marks.
