- With our dedication to quality and a carefully refined process, each piece is lovingly crafted by hand. Despite our rigorous efforts, subtle imperfections, such as tiny air bubbles, may occasionally be visible upon close inspection. These natural characteristics are an inherent part of the handmade process and are not considered defects, but rather a testament to the authenticity and individuality of each piece, and thus are not eligible for returns.
To mark the launch of our brand, we are proud to present an exclusive First Edition Set, limited to just 250 pieces. As a gesture of gratitude to our early supporters, we are pleased to offer 20% savings upon pre-orders.
All our pieces are equipped with felt patches, enhancing the smoothness of movement while protecting both the board and your surfaces from accidental scratches caused by the ceramic pieces.
Our board features a thick felt underside, providing reliable protection for your furniture and tabletops. The slightly recessed felt gives the chessboard a subtle, floating appearance when placed.

Design x Chess
Inspired by the French artist Yves Tanguy, we created a modern interpretation that embraces the simplicity and boldness of brutalist design trends.
King
The most valuable piece on the board, distinguished by its crown and an unmistakably noble design.
Queen
The most agile protector of the King, the Queen is designed with nimble simplicity, yet adorned with a crown of her own. Though less ostentatious than the King, this piece makes a bold statement on the board.
Bishop
Unexpected sightlines and surprise attacks, the Bishop’s movement is reflected in the diagonal design of the piece. Simple yet elegant, it showcases both agility and precision.
Knight
Often the most complex piece in any chess game, the Knight takes on a new identity in this set. Embracing the essence of brutalist design, which seeks to simplify complexity, this piece aligns with the vision of the French artist and is intentionally crafted as the simplest of all.
Rook
The loyal guardian of the King, enabling the castling move, this piece remains nearly unchanged in design yet exudes the same elegance as the more radically reimagined pieces. With a flowing base and a traditional top, it stands as a steadfast protector against the enemy.
Pawn
The eager protector en masse, the pawn features sleek curves that culminate in its signature rounded head. Artist Yves Tanguy highlighted that even the smallest figure on the board deserves the utmost attention to detail and design.
