This is a recreation inspired by Man Ray's famous 1920 chess set.
The king is a pyramid, the queen is a cone, the bishop is a flagon, the rook is a cube and the pawn is a sphere. The knight, perhaps the most striking piece, is represented by a scroll-shaped violin finial.
Each set Includes small screws and each piece has a chamber to add weight (sand, etc).
Please note:
This set does NOT come with a board!
** Set comes with black and white unless requested otherwise **
Please use color numbers when ordering (see picture)
