AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Spectacular chess 'Ajedrado' awarded at the Geneva International Exhibition of Inventions in 1980.

It was invented by Jose Miguel de Vicente in Alcalá de Henares, Spain, and it caused quite a revolution due to the multitude of combinations that could be made with this chess set. This is because each piece is a cube with six faces, and therefore, each piece can be transformed into the one we desire.

For this reason, thousands of possible combinations can be made to train or suggest different exercises or tasks.

It is a very strange and original game that has nothing to do with the different chess sets of that time, or even ours.

An indispensable piece for any Grand Master or serious collector of chess or awarded antiques recognized for their exclusivity and significance.

The box is somewhat deteriorated due to the passage of time but still fulfills its function. The pieces and everything else are in very good condition, as shown in the photos.
