The animal fills the whole lid, mane full, paws forward, with no frame or border to hold it in. The carving runs deep, and the mane is where it comes alive: ridge after ridge of texture that catches the light as you turn the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLions have meant power and kingship from Babylon all the way to the Armenian coat of arms, but on a handmade backgammon board the meaning gets friendlier: whoever owns this set hosts the games. Open the bronze clasps and inside is a full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm playing field — nardi the way it should be played, with a board worth looking at between rolls.\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\u003eEntirely handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it stands out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe resting pose is the hard one to carve well — all the power has to live in the stillness. Deep relief gives the lion its weight, the textured mane gives it movement, and the plain field around it keeps every eye on the animal. A confident gift for a player who likes their wooden backgammon set to say something before the first roll.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CanarianCanary","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53098247815488,"sku":"103544","price":259.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/5551\/9552\/files\/1678531298093.jpg?v=1788439349","url":"https:\/\/canariancanary.com\/products\/backgammon-set-lion","provider":"CanarianCanary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
