Skyline Chess Stainless Steel New York Edition with New York Map BoardSKU.103S5060635319057
3The pieces are beautiful and it looks fabulous. But it`s more of a showpiece, as the pieces are super heavy and the board is not strong enough to support them. We played it as soon as we received it and then went to move it and the pieces fell all over. They are just too heavy to be moved and you can`t move the board around without taking them all off first. Kind of bummer.

A distinguished collector’s piece and an unforgettable gift for the chess fan, the Stainless-Steel New York Edition Chess Set from Skyline will be displayed with pride.
Carefully curated to include some of the city's most recognisable silhouettes, with the iconic New York Brownstone as the Pawn, The Guggenheim as the rook, the Flatiron Building as the knight, The Chrysler Building makes for an incredibly powerful bishop, whilst the undeniable grandeur of the Empire State Building makes for the perfect queen. The poignant, impeccable design of One World Trade Tower is the only choice for king in this set.
Each sculptural piece is hand-cast from stainless steel allowing the architectural form and detail of each iconic New York building to be truly appreciated.
The hand-printed New York City map chess board provides the perfect backdrop to your game.
Founded by two London-based architectural designers, Chris Prosser and Ian Flood, Skyline Chess takes iconic architecture from around the world and pits the greats against each other, bringing impeccable design and a unique take on this most loved game.
As flatmates, Chris and Ian would play chess in the evenings wondering what it would be like if they could design chess pieces in the form of buildings and create the architectural skylines of their dreams to compete in theoretical games, thus the concept of Skyline Chess was born.
Unequivocal ambassadors of craftsmanship, the quality of the materials used by Skyline Chess have been carefully selected and every detail meticulously considered. Each sculptural piece is cast using a combination of both modern production techniques and centuries old know-how.
The brand champions British design and manufacturing in their quest to redesign this Game of Kings.
