Vendor Info
BRITISH ROOTS, INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE
Skyline Chess was founded in 2013 by two London architectural designers and avid chess players, Chris Prosser and Ian Flood.
They bring over 35 years' collective international experience, impeccable design, and an unequivocal commitment to high-quality craftsmanship to every component of Skyline's unique and beautiful product range.
Their flair, innovation, knowledge and skills have seen the business grow a global client base whilst at the same time ensuring that each and every customer has an intimate experience with the company.
UNIQUE TAKE ON AGELESS GAME
As flatmates, Chris and Ian played chess in the evenings and concocted the architectural skylines of their dreams to compete in theoretical games, creating the concept of Skyline Chess.
The idea of products as mementos of relationships and occasions, combined with an architect’s eye for design and an appreciation of craftsmanship, led to a truly unique take on an ageless game.
CRAFTSMANSHIP AND MATERIALS
As unequivocal ambassadors of craftsmanship, the quality of the materials used has been carefully selected, and every detail meticulously considered
For the Luxury bronze sets, a lost-wax casting technique dating back over 6,000 years is used by a foundry run by a small family business in Birmingham's Jewelry Quarter, safeguarding a timeless skill while creating a timeless game.
