Mid-Century Studio Craft Chess Set in Brazilian Rosewood & Philippine Mahogany

Offered by: 20cdesign

Description
This striking hand-turned chess set, crafted in the 1960s by an unknown artisan, embodies the refined geometry and natural elegance of mid-century studio craft design. Meticulously shaped from richly figured Brazilian rosewood and warm Philippine mahogany, each piece is a generously proportioned sculptural tribute to materiality and form. The set hails from an architecturally significant mid-century modern estate, reflecting the era’s deep appreciation for bespoke craftsmanship and organic modernism. A one-of-a-kind collection that bridges function with artistry, perfect for a connoiseur of chess or equally suited for display.
