The eight-pointed star is one of the oldest shapes in Armenian decoration — you will find it on church walls and woven into kilims — a little burst of geometry that reads as a light, a compass or a flower, depending on the day you bring to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a wooden backgammon board it has a rare calm: no single scene demanding attention, just rhythm — the kind of hand-carved pattern your eye wanders across while your opponent thinks too long about a roll. Open the bronze clasps and there is the full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm nardi field, waiting for the evening to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackgammon board with bronze hinges and clasps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 checkers made from beech and walnut wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDice and a carrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolded: 11.8 x 23.6\" \/ 30 x 60 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen playing field: 23.6 x 23.6\" \/ 60 x 60 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 11 lb \/ 5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: solid beech wood with bronze hinges and clasps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade in Armenia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it stands out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepeating stars are unforgiving work — each one must land level with its neighbours, or the whole field loses its music.
