$140.00
Limited Edition

This is an original piece — used in the World Chess Championship (2014, 2016, or 2018) — encased in a solid block of polished acrylic. It is not a replica. It is not a souvenir. It is a true fragment of one of the most prestigious sporting events in the world, presented with the calm dignity the game deserves.

The World Chess Championship Match is the pinnacle of the sport — the historic contest that determines the World Champion. World Chess has organized these matches in partnership with FIDE, bringing the game to a global audience through a new era of design, media, and prestige.

This collector’s piece features an original pawn used in one of these Championship Matches — specifically from the 2014, 2016, or 2018 editions — and is now offered to the public for the first time.

These are not commemorative replicas.
They are the actual pieces used by the world’s greatest players — preserved in museum-grade acrylic and released in a strictly limited edition.

A rare offering for collectors, historians, and chess devotees.
