D'échecs en Verre

D'échecs en Verre

This contemporary chess set combines tempered glass construction for both board and pieces, creating a modern aesthetic suitable for display. The tempered glass board measures 36 inches by 42 inches with a 0.5-inch thickness, featuring 4-inch squares and rounded corners for safety. The board weighs 63 pounds and includes a 2-inch clear border plus a 5-inch area designated for captured pieces. The hand-blown borosilicate glass pieces vary in dimensions depending on specific sets, with pieces ranging from 2.1 to 7.2 centimeters in height. The set combines clear glass with frosted glass pieces for visual distinction between players. Borosilicate glass provides superior durability compared to standard glass and resists thermal shock. Because each piece is formed exclusively by hand, no two pieces are identical, adding uniqueness to the set. The glass material creates a refined appearance with light playing through the pieces. Smaller sets feature 35x35 centimeter boards, with the smallest pieces measuring 2.3 centimeters tall and the largest standing at 7.2 centimeters. These sets function as both game boards and decorative art pieces for modern home interiors.
