The Perfect Chess Set
This set was originally designed for the 1950 Chess
Olympiad held in Dubrovnik,Yugoslavia and if I had to choose only one chess set for play it would be the ‘Zagreb’
set. I have had mine for several years
and it is the only one I use whether at home on my chess table or at the
club. It’s currently available on sale
at The Chess Store for $69.95. If you
are looking for a nice wooden set, slightly unique but at the same time one
that is acceptable for tournament play, this is the one!

I love the size, weight and feel of this set and the price for a wood set is quite reasonable.
