Now, we didn’t ever give a thought to a product that will appeal to an F1 fan, a chess lover as well as to a carbon fiber enthusiast at the same time. Cheers to the folks who do. And the very talented F1 designer Dominik Sheurer is one of them. As part of the high-luxe line Carbon Luxury, the man has created a gorgeous chessboard made in carbon fiber with the liberal use of high quality stainless steel and 24 carat gold or sterling silver. Now this is a rare feat because all these high end material are combined normally for motorsports or aerospace only.
Even the chess pieces are styled in a way never-seen-before. The curves are sexy and the lines are modern while maintaining the original aesthetics of the game. Don’t worry; you will not have to unlearn your knowledge of chess in order to play this one.
The carbon fiber chess set comes in an exclusive wooden box and is accompanied by a signed certificate. So far only 101 units have been made. Make this limited edition yours for $11,350 a piece.
