History and manufacture process of porcelain chess

The history of chess dates back over fifteen centuries: invented in India in the 6th century, chess spread quickly around the world. Luxury sets with chess pieces executed as miniature sculptures made from expensive materials, such as precious stones, rare woods or porcelain, have long been known: such game sets were owned by aristocrats and emphasized the status of a high-ranking person.

Creation of a porcelain chess set made of porcelain takes about a year, sometimes up to eighteen months. As a high-end chess set is usually devoted to a particular topic or historic event, the craftsman will at the start collect data and sketches about the event/topic, associated historical figures, relevant costumes and accessories, which may take up to several months.

The production process for a porcelain chess set is unique and requires much devotion from the craftsman. Before producing porcelain figurines, gypsum molds are made. The molds have to feature supreme quality to prevent any additional treatment of porcelain, as it is believed that porcelain does not like to be touched during the manufacturing stage. After several days of drying the gypsum molds, the porcelain clay mixture is poured in. After removing the products from the molds and final processing, the figurines are air-dried and then fired in kilns for fourteen hours. The polishing stage may follow, after which the figurines are hand-painted and fired for several hours again. If the production involves glazing, a third or even fourth firing is applied. Due to the intricate production process, porcelain chess sets are so expensive and deemed to be luxury items.
