MinCeta Legacy — a rook and a half
The exceptionally designed 1950 pattern soon gave rise to new variations. Each took its own path while faithfully following the recognizable lines of the original model. Apart from the Dubrovnik II version, the set named after the famous Dubrovnik fortress Minčeta stands out in particular for its shape. In 2020, we recreated the Minčeta Legacy set from photographs and footage available online.
The Minčeta set features a sturdier design - with more massive pieces. The Minčeta tower dominates the north-western part of the Dubrovnik city walls, and Croatian sources state that it was the height and imposing appearance of this tower that inspired the strong, striking rook of the set.
