Tournament Chess Zagreb 1959 (acacia/beech)

This Tournament Chess Zagreb 1959 is a full-size wooden chess set built around the distinctive Zagreb 1959 piece design, with tournament proportions and algebraic notation on the board for practical play and analysis.

The set is made for regular games, training, club play and tournament-style chess. Its pieces follow the recognisable Zagreb 1959 style, with a carved knight in a classic Russian tournament form and clear silhouettes for the king, queen and bishop. That makes the set easy to read on the board while keeping its traditional character.

The chess pieces are made from boxwood and Indian acacia, while the chessboard is made from beech, birch, mahogany and maple wood. The board measures 48 × 48 × 3 cm, with 50 mm squares, giving the set a comfortable playing area. The algebraic notation around the edge is useful for recording and reviewing moves during study or club games.
