Marcel Wanders creates Jeux de Cristal Games Collection for Baccarat - a luxurious, elegant interpretation of strategy and honour.
The Collection is a reinvention of the artefacts of history's most iconic games brought into contemporary time. The Collection includes five games - Backgammon, Checkers, Domino, Chinese Go and Chess - each an ode to both - the enduring beauty of competition and the ingenuity, craftsmanship and know-how of the manufacturer's artisans. Along with the board games themselves, a graphic coin carries a three-flower story - the French fleur de Lys, the Dutch tulip, and the flower that was drawn on the first board game ever found, The Game of Ur.
Inspired by the tactics and physical flow of movements, each game features sharp elegant appointments of the appeal for victory and the heroic ways of defeat. Designed with marble and crystal, the set is made from a familiar material combination of Marcel Wanders' and Baccarat's longstanding collaboration.
The Chess game is available from January 2020 onwards.
A collector’s item indeed.
