Sophisticated design, noble materials, and a touch of exclusivity make this game a true collector’s item
It’s not uncommon to see car manufacturers launching exclusive products to promote their brand. But Rolls-Royce’s new chessboard is on another level. It’s a piece that combines art, engineering, and luxury — tailor-made for those who take both chess and style seriously.
Named the Rolls-Royce Chess Set, the game impresses right away. With a minimalist look and impeccable craftsmanship, the set uses hand-crafted aluminum for the pieces and the board, while the wooden surface is laser-cut from a single sheet to ensure uniformity in pattern and natural aging of the material — a hallmark of the British brand.
The sophistication doesn’t stop there. Discreet magnets integrated into the base of the pieces and beneath each square of the board ensure that everything remains perfectly centered with each move, conveying “precision and decision,” according to Rolls-Royce. The pieces themselves are aluminum blocks coated with ceramic and topped with polished stainless steel heads — inspired by organ stops found in the brand’s models.
To acquire this masterpiece, one must visit a Rolls-Royce boutique or showroom and place a custom order. There are 13 leather options for the piece compartment and four types of wood finishes for the board. No information has been provided regarding limited edition or delivery time.
The price also remains a secret — which usually means it won’t be particularly affordable. But who knows, maybe one day this set will show up in an online auction? Until then, we keep dreaming of this luxurious checkmate.
