Luxury Backgammon Table with Interlace Ornament

Luxury Backgammon Table with Interlace Ornament

One bold interlaced ornament cut into the middle of the closed lid, with two smaller ones flanking it — strands passing over and under each other, no beginning and no end, which is the point of the pattern. On a border that long every crossing has to line up or the eye finds it straight away. Bronze hinges and clasps hold it shut, and it stands on its own cabriole legs at proper playing height.

Open it flat and there is a full 23.6" / 60 cm playing field with 32 checkers in beech and walnut, a dice cup and dice. That is the whole case for a backgammon table over a board: nothing has to be cleared, nothing has to be carried, and the height is right for two people sitting in armchairs. Closed again, it is simply a well-carved side table.

A Gift Worth Giving

Every table is finished by hand, so no two are exactly alike. A good gift for a house where nardi gets played often and there is never quite enough table to play it on.
