About this item

Chess collectors and serious players, this Dubrovnik 1950 series reproduction from The Chess Empire is absolutely magnificent! This is the exact same design used in the 9th Chess Olympiad in Dubrovnik back in 1950 - the same set that Bobby Fischer himself called 'marvelous.' The 4-inch king is the perfect tournament size, substantial enough to feel important but not overwhelming on the board. Crafted from genuine boxwood and ebonized wood, each piece is hand-carved by skilled craftsmen with incredible attention to detail. The knights are particularly impressive - carved from solid wood blocks with spectacular detailing that shows true artistry. The set comes with 34 pieces total, including two extra queens for pawn promotion during games. Each piece is heavily weighted and features luxurious billiard cloth base pads that glide smoothly across any board surface. The hand polishing gives them this rich, natural shine that just feels expensive. The uniformity across the set is flawless - same height, same proportions, same exquisite craftsmanship on every piece. This isn't some mass-produced set - you can tell real care and tradition went into creating these pieces. Whether you're a tournament player wanting the best equipment, a collector looking for historically significant sets, or just someone who appreciates beautiful craftsmanship, this Dubrovnik reproduction delivers exceptional quality. The set ships without a board (as shown in photos), but it pairs beautifully with any standard tournament board. If you're looking for that one special chess set that combines history, beauty, and professional quality, this Dubrovnik series is absolutely worth the investment. It's the kind of set you'll treasure for generations.
