THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (1994) - Andy Dufresne's (Tim Robbins) Stone-Carved Chess Knight with Stone - Andy Dufresne's (Tim Robbins) stone-carved chess knight with stone from Frank Darabont's The Shawshank Redemption. Dufresne collected rocks from around the yard of Shawshank Prison that he would later polish and shape into various objects as a hobby. During his time at Shawshank, Andy created a full set of chess pieces made of stone. Collection, polishing and shaping stones posed as Andy's cover to get Ellis Boyd "Red" Redding (Morgan Freeman) to acquire a rock hammer for him which Andy later used as part of his grand escape from Shawshank.

This lot consists of a cream and black Knight chess piece hand-carved from stone with a black painted eye. Included with this chess piece is a layered light purple quartz and muscovite mica blend stone. This lot exhibits flaking material on the quartz stone. Dimensions: (largest) 1" x 1" x 2.25" (2.75 cm x 2.75 cm x 5.75 cm)

Estimate: $4,000 - 8,000
