If you’re an avid chess player and want to show off your skills, and the size of your wallet, brag a little with this unique chess set that will put your opponents to shame. Sure, it’s enough to show how sophisticated you are by loving the game itself, what with all the video games that are out there and basic board games slowly fading away into the dinosaur era…but we think this is old school meets new-age in gaming. Discover Steve Vigar’s chess set and the Royal Diamond chess set, both of which have become true symbols of luxury. As a home decoration, or as a real game board, aside from the aforementioned are lacquered chess sets by a New York based artist named Alexander Gelman, who is in collaboration with Japanese artisans in the Ishikawa Prefecture town.
