Description from the seller

HERMÈS BLEU IMPÉRIAL

Contemporary Art Chess Set – Limited Edition No. 4/30

WHEN ART, LUXURY AND POETRY MEET

French artist KLEINER Dominique presents an original creation in which the elegance of the great Parisian fashion houses meets the richness of the decorative arts and the fascinating world of chess.

Named “Hermès Bleu Impérial,” this art chess set immediately captivates with its distinctive aesthetic, refined color harmonies and remarkable craftsmanship.

The board’s deep blue, the ivory tones of the squares and subtle golden accents create a composition of great elegance.

At the center, a majestic jellyfish with fluid, airy movements unfurls its tentacles among delicate flowers and arabesques. This poetic, almost dreamlike composition brings an unexpected artistic dimension to an object traditionally associated with strategy and contemplation.

A meeting of Parisian elegance, marine imagination and contemporary art.

32 SCULPTURAL PIECES – REMARKABLE HANDCRAFTED FINISH

The 32 chess pieces are made of resin, then meticulously hand-painted and patinated in the artist’s studio.

Their Baroque-inspired aesthetic is characterized by exceptional ornamental richness: sculpted scrolls, foliage, delicate reliefs, crowns and architectural details.

Two refined finishes complement one another:

The patinated turquoise blue, luminous and deep, is enriched with bronze and antique gold nuances that highlight every detail of the relief.

The aged ivory, delicately enhanced with golden patinas, evokes the nobility of historic sculptures and collectible objets d’art.

Each piece receives meticulous painting and patination, requiring patience, precision and an eye for detail.

These handcrafted finishes give the set a distinctive character, far removed from the aesthetic of classic mass-produced chess sets.

AN ALUMINUM BOARD – A TRUE WORK OF ART

The 40 × 40 cm board, made of aluminum, features an original composition dominated by shades of blue and ivory.

The central illustration, inspired by the depths of the sea and organic forms, transforms the chessboard into a decorative work of art in its own right.

The HERMÈS and PARIS inscriptions, along with references to the equestrian world, contribute to this artistic interpretation inspired by the codes of French luxury.

The combination of modern aluminum and the antique appearance of the sculpted pieces creates a particularly elegant contrast.

A LIMITED EDITION – FIRST EXAMPLE OUT OF 30

This creation is numbered 1 in a limited edition of just 30 examples.

As the first example in the series, it is of particular interest to collectors drawn to numbered editions, original creations and contemporary decorative objects.

This chess set comes with its certificate of authenticity, confirming its creation by KLEINER Dominique and its edition number.

More than a chess set, this work is a prestigious decorative piece that will naturally find its place in a refined living room, private library, elegant office or contemporary art collection.
