Chess Center Table
Passion for the Past – The past is our best inspiration. In contrast with the standardized current trends the past is exciting and provides us with memories that we do not want to forget.
The pieces are unique. They are the result of the designer´s and artisan's commitment and passion for a luxurious past. Excellence defines each piece. Involved in its refinement our imagination travels through time and through elegant and pleasant places.
“Our exclusive work recreates feelings and stories of other times that seek to build a perfect past. A past full of passionate memories, inspiring feelings of nostalgia.” - João Bessa.
Chess was invented in Asia about 1500 years ago but it was in the XIII century that modern chess was born and implanted in Europe. The Chess Table is inspired by the chess board and the game’s most important move, the checkmate! The Chess Table depicts the ultimate play in which the Horse defeats the King, who metaphorically melts into a space that recreates a battlefield. These pieces were designed by Bessa and hand carved. A piece of art and design that recreates one of the most ancestral and strategic games of civilization.
