Nifty all glass chess set. Smoked glass versus clear! Comes with mirrored board. Smaller (board is 8"x8") but very decorative....especially in right light!

All Listia rules apply. No lower days. Only USA and Canada Listia verified addresses.

Fan & I will fan back! Listia <3 to all!

This would make an awesome father's day gift for my dad, he loves chess, and has been saying he would like a really nice set.

Awww...TY! Chess is a cool game! But your dad already has 1 father's day gift: A daughter as thoughtful as you! (May be sappy but it's sincere.)

Thanx for looking and regardless I hope you both have a great dad's day!

This is awesome! Are all pieces made of solid glass?
Jun 10th, 2014 at 5:44:47 PM PDT by

Yes....all solid glass. That's why shipping fees. It is very cool but I feel I must reiterate: It's not large. It is as stated: an 8" x 8" board and the pieces all have a 5/8" base. I guess I say this again as although it's a unique set and it looks really cool I prefer it's very clear that it's a mid-sized set.

But yes, it is solid glass and very attractive! I wouldn't part with it if I wasn't forced to downsize.

If I win the bid, would you ship only the chess pieces? I am interested in the pieces only as I make my own boards out of granite. You could keep the board to relist.

Ummm....yes...I'm sure I can. lol (I'm laughing because you stunned me with your query.)

I bet your boards are gorgeous! (You did see these aren't big pieces....just pretty. The board is 8"x8". I'd hate for you to make a big, beautiful board then the pieces look small.)

On the plus side, I measured the bases of the pieces and they're all exactly 5/8" so if you were so inclined you could even make a tip-resistant type board. (Although I imagine granite is harder to drill a short well in than wood.)

Anyway, hope this helps and thank-you for looking! (FB, too!) Good luck!

Great looking chess set!!! How would the players NOT get confused with the same color pieces on both side!!??!! I like the concept though

TY! One set is frosted glass and the other side is clear....just like the squares on the mirrored chessboard are frosted and clear. It does help to be sober &/or at least in good lighting though! lol

oh ok.... I do have two glass chess sets of different sizes. Just did not know if the pieces were colored as shown. :)

Awwww...TY!
(By the way...I noticed on your gorgeous dress auction 1 commenter said "(OO)". I think that means "watching". Just a guess.)

thanks Milyvan1, but he has done so much for me that I wanna get him something real nice and since we are a little tight this would be perfect.

Well TY! It is kinda unique and pretty! (Too bad I'm not a good enough player to make it more functional! :-P )

Already a fan but will keep (O-O) on your auctions!
