The pieces are made of pure carbon fibre!

As part of the high-luxe line Carbon Luxury, the man has created a gorgeous chessboard made in carbon fiber with the liberal use of high quality stainless steel and 24 carat gold or sterling silver. Now this is a rare feat because all these high end material are combined normally for motorsports or aerospace only.

Even the chess pieces are styled in a way never-seen-before. The curves are sexy and the lines are modern while maintaining the original aesthetics of the game.  The carbon fiber chess set comes in an exclusive wooden box and is accompanied by a signed certificate. So far only 101 units have been made. Make this limited edition yours for $11,350 a piece.

Perhaps this set is better for Blitz games, seeing as though the pieces are lighter .
