1950s' Fischer Dubrovnik Chess Set- Chess Pieces Only - Ebony & Boxwood - 3.8 " King

37,500.00 RSD

The original Dubrovnik Set was made in the fifties and sixties in the renowned master carver Jakopović's workshop. These are the pieces that Bobby Fischer proclaimed his favourite, this is the chess set that we can see him analyze with in various documentaries and photographs. He famously said ," I think it's the best chess set I've ever played on. It's just a joy to play with, a joy to hold, the definition of the pieces, the design, … it's just a marvelous set, but it's very hard to get, I don't have it."

Getting an original Jakopovic's set is almost impossible. Price of some of these chess sets which are in playworthy condition can run in excess of hundreds of thousands of dollars and possibly more.

We have bought to life a precise reproduction of the original Dubrovnik with increased ballast at the base.

The Dubrovnik with its fat, chunky bases and a solid well proportioned design is a crown jewel for any chess player or collector.

Update: After feedback received from many chess collectors and players from the chess community, we have made revisions to the rook which has now a straight body and shank as compared to the tapered variant which was sold earlier.

All chessmen are not created Equal.
Some are fancy and artistic and look great on Display like contestants in a Beauty Contest. But beauty queens don't always make the best girlfriend - likewise some chessmen are just more fun to play the game.
That's these guys. Sure they look nice too, but their true beauty is in their balance and they way they FEEL in your hand as you move them around the board. Bobby Fischer clearly thought so as out of the countless sets he must have played chess with these were his #1 choice.
He had a famous set of these he kept with him to study you can spot in photos of him planning strategy.
I highly recommend these to anyone who enjoys playing chess.

Couldn’t be any happier!

Breath taking!
Couldn’t be any happier! As per usual, my pieces came well packaged and pristine. I have several sets from RCM and all of them are unique and such a pleasure to play on. This set in particular, is my favourite to play with. Generously weighted, well balanced and very streamlined. The Kings stand tall and proud. Queens are robust and feel powerful. The Bishops are sleek yet sneaky. The Knights are well detailed, and really fit in the fingers perfectly and of course the rooks are stalky, they pack a punch when attacking. Each piece is designed perfectly and feels like each piece compliments each other. What a joy to move them around. Generously sized bases, wonderful detail, “chunky” would best describe them yet effortless to manoeuvre. I will say that they are even more spectacular in person then in photos. Absolutely perfect, well done RCM and all that work for you. I couldn’t be any happier! You know we’ll be purchasing from you again. Until next time.

Son unas piezas de bonito diseo y bien elaboradas

Pure Chess!

The asthetic quality, from this design, is everything I could have hoped for. The proportions between pieces are harmonious. The knight is simply stunning while the simple silloette keeps it in perfect balance with the set as a whole. I have the updated rook and it is one of the mightiest rooks I have ever held! I feel fortunate to own this set.

Lovely set. Looks as good or better as the pictures and feels very solid due to excellent weighting. Great to play with.
