About this product
Art.: 081-4

Chess of this level is available in limited quantities and is a coveted piece for collectors all over the world. At one time, chess, created by sculptor Leonid Golovko, became a valuable gift for Viktor Chernomyrdin, Eduard Shevarnadze, Egor Gaidar, Alexander Lukashenko, Nursultan Nazarbayev, Dmitry Medvedev and other politicians, businessmen and cultural figures.

Leonid Golovko, a master of fine plastics, has developed more than a dozen parties and compositions on historical and military themes. Each piece of the collection – from the king to the pawn – is a real historical character or a modern political figure with a "readable" charisma, detailed and reliable drawing of characteristic features, clothing or uniform.

All the figures are handmade from porcelain and painted using glaze and gilding. It took 2 years to go from the idea to the embodiment of the images that make up the "New Era" chess; it took weeks to cast and paint each game.

Chess is personalized and contains inlaid initials of the "person involved" on the cases, as well as a description book printed on designer paper, with a title page - an article about a particular character in his native language, in a leather binding, with an embossed portrait and a brass coat of arms on the cover.   The texts were written by a well-known journalist and are presented, with the exception of the title page, in Russian or English.

The figures were made – "portrayed" not only from photographs, but also taking into account their role and position in relation to modern Russian politics, as well as taking into account their hobbies and well-known facts of biography.

In addition to the usual chessboard, a massive inlaid case with a base has been designed from the same Karelian birch, in which porcelain pieces, a chessboard and a leather description book are placed with maximum ease of use and safety.

"Modern Politicians" is a special limited edition, one copy is in the Moscow Chess Museum on Gogol Boulevard.
