Hello all,

I'm new here and would like to introduce myself and show you something .

I'm David and I am, besides a chess enthusiast, a goldsmith by profession.

Besides the normal rings- and pendant work, I've been working for a while at designing a unique chess set.
I know there are lots of beautiful unique chess sets in the world but it seems to me that lovers prefer the classic designs, mostly made of precious materials.
My timeless design is somewhat futuristic and made out of precious metals and stones.
 
I've already made a graphic visualization.
 
Here are some pictures : 
 

And here's a little video:
 
 
In the near future we'll be trying to get this project funded through crowd funding
For now, I 'm looking for the opinion of real chess players and collectors.

Let's hear what you think.

I think people from the middle-east can be interested. Example there are beautiful things in Dubai and there are people ready to buy special things like your gold chess set.
