Our Zagreb Series Wood Grain Resin Chess Set offers the look of real rosewood and boxwood with the benefits of a more durable material and lower price. This design became prominent in the 1950’s when it was first used in the World Championship Candidates Match held in Zagreb in 1959. This is a 34-piece set that includes two extra queens for pawn promotion. Ideal for tournament games, the king is 3.75” tall and has a base diameter of 1.625”. The resin pieces are heavily weighted for exceptional stability on the chess board. Thick green baize pads on the bottom create a soft cushion and allow the pieces to slide smoothly across the chess board. The uniquely shaped knight with its arched neck and turned down head is what distinguishes this chess set from others. As is often found on eastern European sets, the king, queen, and bishop finials are made in the opposite color of the main body. Enjoy your chess games with the timeless Zagreb!

Our Two-Compartment Loose Piece Chess Box is a simple and practical solution for storing chess pieces. Made of heavy cardboard, the exterior is covered with a luxurious black leather-like paper. Our gold foil stamped logo displayed on top adds a level of sophistication and will remind you where the pieces came from. Inside there are two compartments for conveniently storing each color separately and a full telescoping lid. Whether you are just starting out or have been playing for years, these high quality plastic pieces will add enjoyment to every game.
