I really do have ridiculous ways of finding my ridiculous items. I know that for today's item I didn't go searching for giant chess sets... I didn't even know they were on Etsy! I literally searched for "giant" under the handmade category because I know that many times the coolest things are either oversized or undersized versions of the original item. Well that is definitely true in this case!Very appropriately named, largechess is the maker of this item. This set is the largest of his chess sets, at two feet tall. The "World's First Giant Medieval Themed Outdoor Chess Set" is indeed what it says - the world's only giant chess set with a medieval theme! It's based off of King Arthur and the Legend of Excalibur. And I know I've seen regular chess sets made giant, but never one like this! Largechess says he spent over a year creating the original sculptures for this set. And because this is a custom order, they can be made in colors to match your home or garden! The pieces are durable, lightweight, and definitely ridiculously awesome!
ridiculously awesome indeed : )
Oh what a great Father's Day gift this would make!
