MADE IN ITALIA
Italian heritage and craftsmanship
A boundless quest to experiment and rewrite the rules of design: the Renaissance is now. The Teckell ethos is found in its heritage and the hands of select Italian Maestri Artigiani, who infuse the brand’s past, present and future icons with the creativity that only a human touch can provide. Man and his machines revolutionize design, uniting the expert eye and masterful workmanship of skilled artisans with cutting-edge technology to create centerpieces for modern lifestyles. A balance of science and art, handed down by Leonardo da Vinci and his Vitruvian Man. Perfect proportions, purely Italian.
Excellence arises from a limitless, burning desire to create beautiful objects with perfect functionality. That’s why all Teckell designs and details are engineered and continuously improved upon by the company’s in-house R&D department. Every piece is realized with ultramodern tools and technologies: innovation and artistry give rise to sculptural elements that enrich the spirit. Finally, all our masterpieces are tested by professionals and certified by fine luxury experts before receiving the Teckell® signature.
TECKELL's Italian Hand Crafted Chess Game Board
Exquisitely crafted Chess pieces rest on a thick tempered glass gaming surface. Teckell's atention to detail doesn't stop there. It all rests inside a one-inch walnut surround with anti-slip securing buttons at each corner. Other finish options are available. Both the size of the game board (20.5" square - standing 1.77" high) and the secure footings make it perfect for almost any business jet two-place table.
