Atua Standard sets

Atua Standard Chess Set

Our chess sets are more than a game they are taonga. Designed to live within your space, each piece is designed to carry meaning, identity and to tell its story.

A modern expression of re-indigenising our connection to culture, woven into a timeless game. 

Not just made to be used but to be displayed.  

Made using specially designed resin for increased tensile strength and long-term durability. This ensures a perfect balance between details, strength, flexibility and a hard surface finish.

Each set is unique and is resin mixed by hand, so some slight variation in tone and hue may occur from set to set.

All sets include:

• 32 Atua Standard Chess pieces 
• 1 Rakau Chess board- Dimensions 32cm by 32cm
• 1 Rautaki Chess board and pieces storage box

Available colour range:

• Paunamu
• Rakau

Note: while these sets are crafted from a tougher resin, they can be rigid; therefore, they are prone to shattering if dropped on a hard surface. We caution that they should be regarded as a taonga/ special piece of art and not used for children's play or activities that involve rough handling.
