Product details
Step into chess history with the Zagreb Series, a timeless design celebrated worldwide since its debut at the 1959 World Championship Candidates Match in Zagreb. Known for its bold elegance and distinctive style, this set brings both prestige and performance to your chessboard.
Each piece is expertly handcrafted from golden rosewood and natural boxwood, with warm golden-brown tones and striking grain patterns brought to life by a lustrous polished finish. Uniquely crafted finials—the king, queen, and bishop—feature opposite-wood color accents, a hallmark of Eastern European chess artistry. The 3.875″ king, with its commanding 1.625″ base and 3.5-ounce weight, offers exceptional stability for competitive play.
A highlight of the set is the knight, whose gracefully arched neck and turned-down head give it a dynamic, lifelike character that distinguishes the Zagreb from other designs. Thick green baize pads on each base ensure smooth, quiet movement while protecting your chessboard.
Every set includes two extra queens for pawn promotion and a certificate of authenticity, so you will always know what the set is and where it came from. The Zagreb Series combines heritage, artistry, and functionality—making it a prized companion for serious players and collectors alike.
Why Choose the Zagreb Series?
Elevate your game with a handcrafted chess set crafted from rich golden rosewood, delivering warm beauty, luxury, and superior craftsmanship. Perfect for tournament play, the Zagreb Series offers striking visual appeal and reliable performance, bringing a piece of chess legacy to your home.

Seems like a cheap knock-off
I know the second I held the package that this was not as advertised because it felt too light. The description said the pieces weighs 56oz, but they only weight 29oz, almost half. When I opened the package, there were just loose pieces in two boxes. I had to look really hard to see if these were plastic, but they were wood. All of the shapes were different than what was advertised too. I returned this the same day. Oh, and these are definitely NOT the Chess Store brand (unless they started selling cheap stuff). In my picture, top is the listing, and bottom is what you'll get. The knight even looks skinny.
