Plastic chess pieces / chessmen, Dubrovnik Style, weighted, felted
These chessmen are considered to have significant historical importance and are a timeless design classic.
This set was designed and made for the 1950 chess olympiad in Dubrovnik (Yugoslavia).
The 1950 Dubrovnik chess set was designed without religious symbols (king's cross & bishop's mitre).
The pieces were sensibly designed to play with wide bases requiring a minimum of 2.12" chessboard squares.
Originally were not weigted, however this set of pieces is.
In a radio interview Bobby Fischer stated: This 1950 Dubrovnik chess set is the best set I have ever played on.
It is marvellous.Fischer owned a 1950 Dubrovnik chess set that he kept in a safe, which was subsequently sold by a storage company to pay for an outstanding storage bill.
A chess collector provided a chess set after Fischer requested it for the 1992 Fischer–Spassky rematch held at Sveti Stefan.
This is the plastic replica of Dubrovnik set
