Exquisitely Crafted
This richly detailed chess set features extra weighting for stability, precise carving, and buff polished pieces for a lavish touch. A timeless design with impeccable artistry makes it stand apart from any other chess set.
Historical Significance
Originally commissioned for the IX. Chess Olympiad in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia (1950), sculpted by Petar Poček, the set featured smooth curves, capped bishops, and unique knights. It upheld the tradition of no religious symbols and bore a discreet metal badge inscribed with "IX. šah olimpijada 1950 Dubrovnik Jugoslavija".
In the 1960s, cartoonist Andrija Maurović redesigned the set, popularized by Bobby Fischer. His original set was later stolen, making authentic versions extremely rare.
Collector's Appeal
Only about 50 original sets were produced and are now exceptionally scarce. Chessbazaar now offers a precise reproduction with weighted pieces, retaining the essence of the original design while correcting prior flaws.
Craftsmanship
- Uniformity: Each piece is crafted to be as identical as possible
- Thick green felt: Offers a premium and comfortable playing experience
- Double-weighted: Enhances grip and balance during intense play
Note: Original Dubrovnik chess pieces were non-weighted. The 1970 version used by Bobby Fischer has subtle design differences. The 1950 Dubrovnik Olympiad set was never sold in stores.

34 Chessmen (including 2 extra queens), Chess Board, and Storage Box
