This version addresses customer feedback with a more accurate knight design, ensuring a closer reproduction of the original.The 1950s' Dubrovnik Chess Set became famous as Bobby Fischer’s favorite chess set. Fischer famously called it "the best chess set I have ever played on." Originally seen at the 9th Chess Olympiad in Dubrovnik, Croatia, the set is a rare and highly sought-after collector's item.

Uniformity of pieces: The shapes of turned pieces are guided by metal profiles and so all turned pieces are identical, especially the pawns. You can expect some variation where hand carving or cutting comes i.e. knights.

Craftsmanship: Cultivating a new level of craftsmanship and artisanal luxury in this version 3.0, we present to you our most exquisite Dubrovnik yet.
