This detailed set of hand-painted themed chessmen has been brought to life by the experts at Italfama of Italy.

Looking every inch like a jazz band in their white suits and red dicky bow ties, they are led by a guitar-strumming king and sultry crooning queen. Actively playing their instruments, the knight plucks his double bass whilst the traditional jazz instrument, the saxophone, is displayed by the bishop. Beating the drums are the castles, whilst clarinet players make up the team of pawns.

Portrayed as a typical rock band with tattoos and clad in leather, both the king and queen in the rock band are animatedly performing their song into handheld microphones. The bishops, knights and pawns are all sporting guitars, with the knight being particularly spirited in his stance, whilst the castle coolly beats the rhythm on the drums.

We have matched these stunning pieces with a beautiful 40cm walnut and maple chessboard from Spain to give you The Jazz vs Rock Chess Set. With or without the chessboard, this is a superb gift for any music enthusiast.

Please note that as these pieces are hand-painted, there may be some inconsistencies in the level of detail and colour and therefore your pieces may be very slightly different from the images shown. Any inconsistencies, however, are minimal.
