Appears to be a new player on the scene offering something in the $0.60-$1.20 per chip range.

From an artwork standpoint - I really like the edgespots at first, but after a couple minutes of looking I think they’d become an eyesore. 6 edgespots with 3 colors is just too much for me!! The logo is eye-catching and the colorways are mostly attractive.

Material, I’d guess probably ceramic.

The business model they’re going with seems interesting. Selling only in quantities of 330 (6 denoms), 100 (6 denoms) or 25 (one denom/color). Seems they’re mostly geared toward tournaments, didn’t see any cash sets. Looks to be around $1.00 per chip in the 330 and 100 qty sets.

Has anybody else noticed these yet? Interesting to see what they can accomplish without offering larger sets and/or custom breakdowns

I’m fairly new to the collector side, but might be a good gift idea for a non-enthusiast. The “azzuri” ones are pretty cool looking but I don’t think I’d be able to play thru a tournament with these. Like you said, 6 edgespots + 3 colors might be too much

“25 pieces”

On the diamond mold.

All prices are in Euro.

Why not get (almost) the same thing with the quality and trust behind BR Pro in the USA? Fully customizable, too.

Terrible.

Yeah I’m kind of thinking the same. If they had a calmer spot pattern and were competitively priced with BRPro stock designs or Tikis I MIGHT think differently. Like @mjsil84 said probably fine for a gift to casual enjoyers but at that point just give them Nevada Jacks lol.

Look like Tina Ceramic Diamond Mold to me so it's an extreme markup of 400% on their products.

I kinda enjoy the colorful (6 edgespots + 3 colors), it gives me a very B&G vibes

That has to be a mock-up, not a real photo... it's too crisp all around.

That's right, the pic is a mockup and not a real photo. It just a clearer image to show what the material of the chips.

Yeah, checked out the site. Interesting all around- the size of the packs, the different color options. I wish them luck.

They look to be made in Jamaica, Texas

 

[dannyz]

yeah that color scheme isn’t for me. But I wouldn’t be in for 50k denoms

Topic died a while ago, i think no one actually has tried those chips afterwards, i gave them a try anyhow. Decent sale on series 1 and free shipping quite convinced me to it. I’ve got one sleeve ( as they’re coming in 25 counts unless in set), then another one, small set and then couple more sleeves. 280 chips in total so far.

As most guessed they’re ceramics on diamond mold, quite pleasant to touch. They having certain level of grittiness on the surface so they’re not slippery when stacked.

Colours are up to one’s preferences, I like them despite fact in other topic I’ve claimed undisputed love to standard Vegas colours; I guess this will be small exception for tourney set.

Weight in ballpark of 10g

There’s couple more series are coming along with cash sets, you can check it on the website.

In my opinion if you’re based in Europe they are quite nice choice if proper Paulson or casino chips with shipping would be to expensive but you don’t want to buy any mass produced slugs.
