The James Abell Art Chess Set https://jamesabellart.com/product/the-james-abell-art-chess-set https://jamesabellart.com/product/the-james-abell-art-chess-set#respond Mon, 23 Dec 2024 20:53:54 +0000 https://jamesabellart.com/?post_type=product&p=1248 info@jamesabellart.com]]>

Ancient landscapes that will most likely be the same far into the future. A place of constant changing weather and seasons.

Likewise Chess, a game of constant changes and opposites. Chess imitates life and life imitates chess.

Scotland has a long history of chess, going back to the Norse voyagers who left the Lewis Chess pieces on a beach in the Outer Hebrides.

 


Concept

As an artist/designer I have always had an ambition to design and make my own chess set so I eventually committed to this project in early 2022. All boards and pieces are made by myself, each one is unique with slight variations in stains, fillers etc. I’ve made the Chess sets in what I consider to be a unique aesthetic mix of simplistic minimalism of sculptural shapes with a monolithic feel to them.

james abell art chess set

 

Each set contains –

  • Resin pieces cast from 3D printed pieces (I designed in Blender) moulds with polyurethane resin and recycled coffee used as the black filler and a speckled filler for the black and white pieces.
  • 40x40cm board/etched birch ply dark Laser Cut birch ply board dark pieces stained with coffee finished with high quality Osmo oil
  • Pieces weighted inside with a ball bearing. Cut felt bases on each piece.
  • Printed logo canvas tote bags that contain the board and also the pieces.
  • A Signed James Abell Art certificate of authenticity.
  • 2 surprise signed Chess themed art postcard prints from my draw everyday work (I make a traditional drawing everyday).

     


    James Abell Art

    Designed and made in Scotland using environmentally sustainable methods by James William Crofton Abell

     


     

    Construction Notes

    I made the pieces from rough sketches then developed them in the 3D software Blender. I then 3D printed these pieces out. I then cast these in as negative silicone rubber moulds and used polyurethane mixed with recycled coffee granules as a filler (more for the dark pieces, less for the white to give a speckled look).

    It took me a long time to work out the correct mix of coffee granules to filler. There were many failures but I am please I got to the point where I perfected the correct mix. Coffee and chess go well together

    The board was cut with a laser cutter and the dark pieces were stained again with recycled coffee granules. I designed and made the first version of this board in January-February 2022. The end (hopefully) of the Covid pandemic. It was a dark winter but like new art and designed objects, this project cast rays of light towards the future.

    The whole set is designed with sustainability in mind and as a luxury item it should enhance your interior and be played for years to come.
