We last reported on the world’s smallest chess board (no pieces) at 2.5 mm by 2.5 mm, and the world’s smallest chess set (with pieces) at 24 mm by 24 mm.

The next world’s smallest chess set with pieces is a mere 3.5 mm by 2.5 mm and it’s also gorgeous. It’s not just a plain old set, it’s a work of art.

The guy who makes it also makes tiny camels that pass through the eyes of needles.
