Teckell Stratego Wood

Teckell Scacco Collection invites you to slow down and enjoy your precious free time.
Strategy, contemplation, intelligence: all three are key elements for enjoying Teckell’s board games but, above all, you need time. A rare gift in this hectic era. The time for pondering your next move, lingering over the board, challenging your sparring partner.

A collection dedicated to those for whom patience is a virtue and beauty is unabashedly adored.
Stratego is also a design object to admire while you lounge on a leather sofa and do absolutely nothing. Or it can quickly become the setting for a modern-day strategic duel between friends.
With Teckell Stratego, the beloved board game is elevated into a precious design object, a sculpture to be touched and played with.

"Teckell’s tried-and-true materials were our inspiration – marble, crystal and steel – which Stratego combines in a single product." – says Lorenzo Di Giovanni, creative head behind Teckell Design Lab.
"Stratego had to be not only a chessboard but the base for various board games. All this while hiding from view the mechanism." - Lorenzo Di Giovanni
It was important that Stratego have a clean profile without elements breaking up the lines. In this way, you can best appreciate the reflections and the interplay of light created by the combination of different materials. That is why we devised a magnetic opening system for the game board, which rests inside the base. This allows you to extract the game board - Stratego clean lines hide four different games: Chessboard, Checkers, Backgammon, Chinese chess, Ludo - and substitute another without any push-buttons or latches that would’ve broken up the marble base’s minimal lines. Innovation and a ‘less is more’ approach make Teckell’s signature.

MULTI-GAME: four different game options.
Interchangeable game surface in thin metal allowing you to play multiple games. Just choose a game and place inside the appropriate thin, metal game surface. Through the simple magnetic opening. Available games: Chess and Checkers, Backgammon, Ludo, Chinese chess (Xiangqi).

CHESS HEROES: masterpieces of art in miniature.
“Details make perfection,” said Leonardo Da Vinci. Chess pieces made of lathed, extra-clear borosilicate glass cylinders decorated with 24k gold / chrome plated brass.

YIN AND YANG: one soul, two appearances.
Solid marble base features two finishings: white Calacatta Carrara and black Marquina marbles. A block of tempered, extra-clear crystal solidly rests on top, completing another masterpiece by Teckell, dedicated to crafting stylish, classic board games. Moreover, the walnut wood base turns Teckell Stratego into a timeless masterpiece.

LIFESTYLE: an enlightening coffee break.
This design object entertains as well as fascinates guests, drawing people in and becoming the living room’s centerpiece. Pour a cup of fresh-roasted coffee or an after-dinner drink and settle in for lively game or two.

STUNNING PURITY: Calacatta is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful white marbles. An hard and resilient marble, delicate only in appearance. It appears to have been naturally decorated with special grey veins.

COSMOPOLITAN MINIMALISM: Black Marquina is an intense black marble with intricate white veins, sophisticated elegance and velvety appearance. Its irregular white veins, concentrated to a greater or lesser extent according to the slab being installed, visually recall a painter’s brushstrokes on an intense black canvas. The final effect, a majestic velvety stone mantle that dissolves into a decorative setting, offering endless aesthetic possibilities. Black Marquina leaves no-one unmoved.

TIMELESS AND UNIQUE GAME ROOM: Teckell knows modern game rooms must amaze and entertain guests. Solid walnut wood turns this Teckell masterpiece into a timeless object for sophisticated interiors. It is the perfect match to Teckell 90  Minuto Walnut and Teckell T1.3 Wood.
