Size of the sculpture: 53 x 33 x 25 cm

Diameter of the ball: 20 cm

Number of boxes: 64 Dimensions of the base storage: 23 x 23 x 5.5 cm

A unique artisanal creation

In this game, each piece is handcrafted and modeled in our “La Distillerie” workshop in Lodève, Occitania. So it is a 100% French creation. In terms of manufacturing, the body and storage base are made of stained and laser cut poplar plywood, while the pieces of the chessboard and ball are made of plastic and are designed from a 3D print. In total, it took 1 week to assemble this unique piece to assemble the NKD puzzle epic.

OrbChess, more than a game, an artistic creation

OrbChess is more than a game. It's an artistic chess board that has been reworked in a sphere. At OrbChess, you would particularly appreciate the finesse of the workmanship and the level of detail.
Like the other works in our collection, we wanted to transcribe the mechanical inspiration . That's why we put in things like the mechanical gears. Like a work of art, you can proudly display it on a piece of furniture at home and impress your guests.
It will also be an opportunity to invite a loved one to defend their place in a game of chess like no other.
