Armenian Chess Set with Handle - Mount Ararat

Armenian Chess Set with Handle - Mount Ararat

This is the board that comes on the trip. A real built-in handle folds this Armenian chess set into its own carrying case — Mount Ararat and carved ornaments on the outside, a complete backgammon set hidden inside. Two games, one grip, 11.8" / 30 cm of hand-carved wood.

The handle changes how the set gets used: it goes to the park, the mountain house, the family visit, and comes home with new stories. Chess outside for the thinkers, nardi inside for the whole table — and Armenia's mountain riding along on every trip. With 32 wooden chess pieces, 32 checkers and dice, this travel chess backgammon set never has to say no.
