Midnight Match chess & checkers

A fusion of matt & gloss blacks exudes a seamless, striking, and bold ultra statement of luxury with clean lines of liquidity, mesmerising the beholder with its deep, dark velvetiness of desire and power.

Wherever played or admired, Midnight Match offers an immersive experience, a world where the shades and shadows play their own game passionately and the chess game comes to life. Created with a mix of specialised paints, the board incorporates up to eight layers of hand painting & polishing over several days to produce an exquisite finish that conveys the most dramatic and amazing aesthetic.

The chessboard measuring 55cm x 55cm is paired with Purling Bold Boxwood hand-carved chess pieces. Inspired by Staunton design and featuring Purling’s unique Knight design. Both sides of the pieces are coated with two layers of base-coat primer, with one side receiving two layers of high-gloss paint, finished with two layers of crystal-clear lacquer and the opposing side – two layers of toughened matt paint, to produce a wonderfully silky finish. Triple weighted, the pieces are completed with Italian Napa leather base felts, featuring the Purling logo embossed in 18 carat gold.

Presented in Purling branded luxury packaging - Midnight Match is the ultimate statement in style – lavish and decadent, dark and desirable.
