The 1950 Dubrovnik Chess Set: Commissioned for the IX. Chess Olympiad in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia, the Serbian sculptor Petar Poček crafted an exquisite set of chess pieces in 1950, featuring smooth curves, distinctive capped bishops, and elegantly unique knights unlike the conventional Staunton Elgin marbles style. These chess pieces was constructed from maple and chestnut in their natural hues which exhibited an unconventional width at the base, while adhering to the tradition of great Staunton/Jaques of London designs. Notably, the requirement for no religious symbols was strictly upheld, and a discreet metal badge within the box bore the inscription "IX. šah olimpijada 1950 Dubrovnik Jugoslavija".

Note: Original Dubrovnik chess pieces are non-weighted. Commercially available 1970 chess set (used by Bobby Fischer) design is slightly changed from the actual 1950 Dubrovnik but the difference is not hugely noticeable. The actual 1950 Dubrovnik Olympiad chess set was never sold in any store.
