Description

This chess set package includes our Zagreb Series with golden rosewood and boxwood matched with our Classic Walnut and Maple Chess Board. 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 unique and handsome Staunton design has since become a favorite for chess players around the world and one of our most popular chess sets.

Our Walnut and Maple Classic Chess Board is made with the finest veneers and sealed in semi-gloss polyurethane protective finish.
