Introducing the Zagreb Chess Pieces, often referred to as the Zagreb 1959 Series due to their association with the world championship tournament held in Zagreb, Croatia, in 1959. This unique design stands apart from other Staunton chess pieces, notably featuring the top portion of the three main pieces—the king, queen, and bishop—graciously embracing the opposition colour. The knight, a centrepiece of detail, is strikingly carved with strokes across its vertebrae and seems to bow in a graceful manner. This particular piece carries a design reminiscent of other Russian chess piece styles. These carefully handcrafted pieces are the work of skilled artisans based in Amritsar, India, and each piece is meticulously carved from blocks of specified wood to embody the intricacies and designs of its unique role.

To complement this exceptional set, we offer a meticulously veneered walnut wood chess piece storage box. Spacious and versatile, this box accommodates pieces ranging in size from 3 inches to 4 inches. Padded and lined with sumptuous black velvet felt, the storage box ensures your cherished chess pieces remain protected and preserved. An exceptional and high quality ebony chess set.
