Made of solid brass, the chess set adds weight and stability, creating a sense of value and tradition.

After the Dark Ages, Europe was influenced by a strong nostalgia for classical antiquity. Literature, philosophy, art, science, architecture and politics were reformed by the revival of interest in the values ​​of the Greeks. The word Renaissance literally means “rebirth”, as a deep desire of humanity to recover from darkness. The value of human life and the extraordinary genius of the human brain were restored through the rediscovery of the spiritual heritage of ancient Greece.

The figures are exquisitely slender and symbolically decorated, in keeping with the slender aesthetic of the era. The King and Queen reflect a more individualistic view of man, the Knight combines influences of a heightened awareness of nature, while the Rook represents a revival of classical learning.

The Renaissance period was a cultural awakening in the art world. Advances in perspective and the depiction of human anatomy led to a trend of increasing naturalism in Renaissance sculpture, in which human and animal figures were depicted with striking realism
