| Description: | Vintage Chess Set made of Corn Husk and other common materials such as wood, wool, metal, etc. Amazing art depicting characters from the West, possibly South America in daily life depiction. Each is individually made - Landlord for king, dancers for queens, various religious characters for bishops, horses with riders (kettle catchers with lassos, guards), castle/tower for rooks. Each pawn represents some tradesman such as a cowboy, hunter, fisherman, shepherd, gold miner, musician, wood collector/chopper, witch doctor, water/milk carrier, eggs/mushrooms collector and many more. One of a kind work of art from unusually common materials. Must have taken many months to design and complete. |
