The Fomor Chess Set is a handmade Irish chess set inspired by mythic Celtic warriors and battle imagery. The board measures approximately 38 x 38 cm, and the pieces range from approximately 6 cm to 8 cm.

The pieces are hand cast by O'Gowna Studios in a natural limestone colour, then finished with antique patina colours to distinguish the two sides: one in a blue-grey stone tone and the other in a warmer sandstone tone.

As each set is handmade, slight visual variations may occur while the same standard of craftsmanship applies. Handmade in Dublin, Ireland by O'Gowna Studios.

Story & Significance

Irish mythology is full of figures from the Tuatha De Danann, the Ulster Cycle and older heroic tales. Names such as Nuada and Cu Chulainn carry stories of kingship, courage, rivalry, loss and renewal rather than simple fantasy decoration.

A myth-inspired design gives the piece a stronger sense of character. It is a gift for someone drawn to Ireland's legends as well as its landscape: a reminder that Irish heritage is carried in stories as much as in symbols.
