Old and broken down auto parts are nothing more than trash for some, but for people like Armando Ramírez they are no less than treasure. The artist transforms these objects into sleek, black and silver chess sets. The found objects are rolled into a specially crafted die machine that transforms them into horses, pawns and everything that you see on a chess set. To complete the chessboard Armando uses everything from screws and bearings to a car’s electrical system. The final product is not even polished to keep it in its distinct appearance. The chess set is perfect to be gifted to any eco-minded chess lover.
