It is one of the oldest ornaments there is — the same shape people have carved onto armour, roof tiles and pottery for thousands of years — and it earned that longevity honestly, because overlapping is how things stay protected. Every scale on this luxury walnut backgammon set covers the join beneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhich is a fair description of the game inside, if you think about it: you stack your checkers so each one covers the next, and the player who leaves a gap pays for it. Run a hand across the closed lid and you can feel every row — walnut takes this kind of shallow, endless carving better than any other wood, holding a soft sheen where the light crosses the arcs. Open the clasps, let the bronze hinges swing back, and the full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm playing field is waiting, plain and generous after all that texture.\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\u003eA pair of dice and a carrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolded: 30 x 60 cm \/ 11.8 x 23.6\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen playing field: 60 x 60 cm \/ 23.6 x 23.6\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 5 kg \/ 11 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood: solid walnut, 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\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn all-over fish-scale relief carved by hand from edge to edge in solid walnut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverlapping arcs that catch the light in rows as you move around the board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA tactile closed lid — the kind of surface people reach out and touch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA luxury walnut backgammon board that is quiet from a distance and remarkable up close\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift Without a Theme\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo emblem, no mountain, nothing to match to the recipient's politics or hometown.
