Named after the capital city of Croatia where a tournament for the World Chess Champion was held in 1959, this set of contrasting colours of the pieces is an eye-catcher.
The top décor of the three tallest pieces (king, queen and bishop) are in the opponent's colour. An unusual, yet a popular set of chess pieces back then. In contrast to the popular Staunton design, the bishop doesn't have a mitre but is smooth and featureless all way round. The knight shows some detailed carvings and is of the "Russian Knight" style.
