As you might know, Nick loves playing chess and since 2020 we were discussing publishing a book with chess drawings. During this process I suggested to create a set of chess pieces. I found a young artist who congenially formed some of Nick’s drawings into chess pieces. The 6 different figures were firstly carved from a special plaster, then silicone forms were manufactured and 2 weeks ago the first two pieces arrived from the art foundry. I can’t describe my fascination to hold these 1.2 kg heavy bronze figures in hands! To feel Nick‘s drawings transitioned into 3D is nothing less than sensational!
A full set of pieces would be very expensive unfortunately which is why I thought to offer King and Queen separately in a velvet-line open box. They are perfect for a frontal presentation accompanying your Blinko books.
