Our Zagreb 4" Rosewood pieces combined with a beautiful 55mm chess board made from mahogany and sycamore veneer is all you need for your next exciting game of chess.
The Zagreb pieces are a replica of the pieces used for the World Chess Champion tournament in 1959, in the Croatian town of Zagreb. Amongst the players of this tournament you find famous names like Tigran Petrosian, Mikhail Tal and not least Bobby Fischer. With their contrasting colours - the top of the kings, queens and bishops are in the other player's colour - the pieces will be quite an eye-catcher. The Knight will also catch your attention with its beautifully bended neck and its design is of the "Russian Style".
The board is crafted from mahogany and sycamore veneer and with a square size of 55mm fits the Zagreb set well.
Both the pieces and the board are handmade and they will not only guarantee you many hours of enjoyable chess games but you will also admire the beauty of this set. Own your part of history now.
