The 'Queen's Gambit' Effect: Everyone Wants a Chess Set Now
_______(1) for the past few years the most popular _______(2) on Netflix was undoubtedly Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, as portrayed by Claire Foy and Olivia Colman in The Crown, this fall another type of queen _______(3) her mark: Beth Harmon, the captivating protagonist of The Queen's Gambit, a Netflix original that became an overnight sensation and inspired a slew of discerning viewers to pick up _______(4).
Call it the Queen's Gambit effect: Chessboards are flying off the (literal and virtual) rack in the wake
of the show's hit season. Just ask Anthony Barzilay Freund, editorial director and director of fine art at
vintage site 1stDibs: “The Queen's Gambit is driving an interest in the game of chess among new audiences
and demographics,” Freund confirms: “At 1stDibs, in just the month following the show's release, we've
seen a 100% increase in sales of chessboards, pieces, and tables as compared to this time period last
year.”
Of course, while it might be enjoying a renewed popularity at the moment, the game of chess dates back centuries and has long captivated players all over the world. It's believed to have derived from a 7th-century Indian game, then evolved as it spread across Asia and Europe in the following centuries. As a result, says Freund, “you can find a variety of vintage and contemporary chess paraphernalia from dealers all over the world.” Those who don't necessarily have the budget for pawns of precious stone have a myriad of options on the market at all price ranges. So light a fire, make a drink, and set up the chessboard – Beth Harmon would be proud.
