Description
The Dubai Edition Chess Set was created as part of a showcase of European designers for Downtown Dubai Design Week 2018. The show-stopping buildings are aptly striking for such a decadent game; Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum's House plays the pawn, The Cayan Tower makes for an incredibly elegant rook, the Emirates Tower steps in as knight, the Rose Rotana is a beautiful bishop and the Princess Tower makes for a regal queen, with the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa’ s commanding stature being fitting for a king.
King – Burj Khalifa
Queen – Princess Tower
Bishop – Rose Rotana
Knight – Burj Al Arab
Rook – Cayan Tower
Pawn – Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum's House
The Dubai Edition Chess Set is made using the highest quality materials to create beautiful and unique objects for both the chess player and design enthusiast alike. The 32-piece set is cast in injection-molded acrylic. Each piece is double-weighted with a soft felt base. Completed in monochromatic acrylic which plays a perfect nod to the concrete tones within the world of architecture whilst allowing the form and detail of each building to be truly appreciated.
As each piece is handmade, small imperfections can happen. This part of the handmade process is what makes the products unique and should not be seen as a fault. Each set comes complete with a hand screen-printed black and white wooden playing board and in a presentation box.
