Zagreb Chess Pieces - Ebonized/Boxwood - 3.7" King 

 One of my favorite sets (other than the Ultimates) and always is in my chess bag.  It is a classic European Chess set.  The King, Queen, and Bishop have opposite color finials.  The true history of this set is somewhat muddled.  Many state this is a Russian Style set while others will tell you it was based on a design used in the '59 Candidates Match that had games in the fine city.  This set with its styling looks like it came right out of the miniseries "The Queen's Gambit".

No matter where it came from...this is an amazing chess set.  Eastern European styling cues make this set distinctive from across the room.  The nice thing about this set is the set is one of the sturdiest set of wood chess pieces on the market.  It is made for the tournament scene from classic time controls to the destructive "Bullet" matches.

  • Ebonized (Dark) and Boxwood (Light)
  • Weighs in at 2.425 lbs
  • Complete set of 32 pieces (Single Queens)
  • Distinctive Russian "Seahorse" Knight
  • Opposite color tops for the King, Queen, and Bishop

Gorgeous set. Great quality. Great value.

I'm super happy with this set. The pieces are beautiful and flawless. They were packaged and shipped with care, which from a customer experience standpoint, is always appreciated. At this price point, I feel that this set can't be beat.
