We were approached by British Airways High Life Magazine to provide them with an artist-painted chess set and to advise them on the set up of the pieces. The photograph above features a one-off Art Chess set by Sophie Matisse. In order to reference the plot of the Amazon Prime series “Good Omens” – a six-part series about the approaching Armageddon and the unlikely teaming up of a demon and an angel (played by David Tennant and Michael Sheen respectively) in a fight to save the world – the arrangement of pieces was inspired by the famous “Immortal Game”.


IN London Magazine contacted Purling to assist with a fashion photo shoot, for which the models were featured with one of our Bold Chess sets. we were there to support and advise on setting up the pieces for each shot.


Please! Magazine – a publication about style, fashion, jewellery and culture – contacted Purling about assisting with a fashion shoot, for which they wanted to incorporate a beautiful Art Chess set, hand-painted by Kate Brinkworth. Purling was able to be on site and to advise on setting up the chess board for the shoot.
