Nobody Chess Set

A chess set that actually gets played, because it lives on the shelf.

A chess set that stores inside its own board. The pieces slot into a rack that closes into a slim case, so the whole game stands on a shelf like a book rather than living in a box in a cupboard — which means it actually gets played.

The pieces are minimal — silhouettes rather than carvings — which is where the name comes from. Nobody's face, nobody's crown, just the shapes you need to know which is which. It's the set for a coffee table with taste, and the gift for the player who's outgrown the plastic one.
