The history of chess is more than 1500 years. Ancient chess sets are represented in museums all over the world. They are amazing. But times change. Nowadays modern art gives the artist more leeway in technical execution as well as concept expression and arrangements of design elements.

There are no strict rules and obligations the artists must stick to. Here's a list of the most fancy and stylish chess sets modeled by different designers. Some of them you can buy though they might cost you a handful of loose diamonds. Some exists in a single copy.
