THE ARTISTS’
ARTIST, FRANK FRAZETTA
1928 – 2010
Frank Frazetta was the master of Modern Fantasy Art. As the original artist behind JR Tolkien’s Lord Of The Rings, his images still influence creativity and excellence today. He was a visionary in the Sci-fi and fantasy art genre. And he gave an emotional exactitude never seen in other artists, as seen in Wild Ride. Frank never misses a stroke on her perfectly composed buttock, masterfully completed with cellulite, and redness from riding bare back.
While other artists created characters with blank or contrived faces, Frank captured the eyes of his subjects with precision. Stare into them long enough, and you’ll catch yourself looking over your shoulder, or drifting off to imagine what they see. Frank’s work went beyond even dreams or visions; it was as though he walked straight into history and painted what he saw with chilling accuracy. Like the $400,000 oil painting, Bran Mak Morn, and the bloody battles between the Nordic and Neanderthal.
WORLDS APART FROM ANY
OTHER CHESS PIECES

Meet your Frazetta pieces.
PAWN: ATLANTIS
Does the lost city of Atlantis really exist? If so, you’ll find Frazetta’s Greek warrior standing valiantly among the ruined city. Brad Steiger demanded this chiseled soldier as the cover for his famous book Atlantis Rising. Atlantis and his infantry bring unwavering courage as the silver pawns in your chess army.
ROOK: SILVER WARRIOR
North of Iparsia, there is a land of frost known as Icevald. Akrila Sangrilak, the Silver Warrior, has watched over this land for decades. But now, Icevald is under attack by the Vikavian raiders. Who will save the people of this frozen tortured land? With sword in hand, and sled racing at breakneck speed, this Nordic warrior stamps your chess game with a mark of power and unbreakable defense.
KNIGHT: THE HUNTRESS
Frank knew how to capture warrior women with spectacular strength and clarity. Something very few artists could match. The Huntress is one of the most well known of his strong women. Here she triumphs, bringing a pair of Sabre Tooth Tigers to their knees. She’ll unleash raw feminine sexual energy and masculine power to your chess game.
BISHOP: DEATH DEALER 3
He is a foreboding phantom and undoubtedly one of Frazetta’s greatest icons. Frank created several versions of this brooding warrior and this, is Death Dealer 3 – Rise Of The Death Dealer. Weary from protecting his lands, and from behind his horned helmet, the tortured soul – Gath, stands among the bones of his foes. This unique chess piece brings your game quiet moments of triumph and glory.
QUEEN: EGYPTIAN QUEEN
Next to his fierce female warriors, Frazetta’s mastery of the true feminine, gave birth to the sultry, Egyptian Queen. In his original work, the sensuous queen leans seductively against an ancient Egyptian column. Wistfully, she gazes off to her right, as a guard stands at her left. Your silver queen adds a tone of quiet dominance to your board as she brings your foes to their knees.
KING: THE BARBARIAN
Poised triumphantly upon the remains of his defeated enemies stands The Barbarian. Without doubt, this is Frazetta’s most well known icon. For your solid silver chess set, we’ve selected #5 – Conan The Adventurer. With sword in hand he challenges adversaries to come forth and battle. He stands with unadulterated power, commanding respect from your opponent.
