About Us

An art catalog is a curated assembly of artworks gathered by an individual, institution, or group, often reflecting the collector's interests, tastes, or a specific theme.

Where Passion Meets the Game

We’re a community of chess enthusiasts, collectors, and dreamers who see chess as more than a pastime — it’s a lifelong pursuit of beauty, logic, and legacy. Our site was created for those who treasure the stories behind every move, every player, and every piece of history connected to the royal game.

A Marketplace Built on Love for the Game

Just like a well-played opening, our auction platform is carefully designed — a place where collectors and players can meet, trade, and celebrate the heritage of chess. We specialize in rare chess books, historic match programs, and chess-themed stamps that capture moments and masters across time.

Every listing tells a story: a forgotten tournament, a grandmaster’s notes, or a postage stamp that carried the spirit of the game across continents.

Our Mission: Preserving the Legacy, One Move at a Time

We aim to build more than a marketplace — we’re curating a living archive of chess culture. Our goal is to keep these pieces of history in the hands of people who value them, so the story of chess can continue to inspire new generations of players and collectors.

We believe that every book and every stamp is a record of human creativity and strategy — timeless lessons written in ink and imagination.
