Bauhaus artisanal chess set elaborated with blue and white synthetic leather, embedded meticulously in an oak wood box.
This chess set stands out for following the Bauhaus line, the most influential Modernist art school of the 20th century.
One of its key principles is “the shape follows the purpose”. This chess board follows this philosophy, with minimalist designed chess pieces that can be comfortably kept inside the same structure.
