This one says it outright. The coat of arms of Georgia sits at the centre of this handmade Georgian backgammon set, hand-carved in deep relief, with the nation's own name cut into the wood beside it — no caption required, no explaining needed. Scrollwork spreads out from the emblem across the whole lid, and Saint George rides at the heart of it, lance lowered, exactly where Georgians have always liked to put him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will notice what it does to a room. A wooden backgammon board like this one does not sit quietly on a shelf — it gets picked up, turned over, asked about. Then the clasps come open, the bronze hinges swing, and inside is a full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm playing field with the checkers waiting. Carry it in by its cut-out handle, set it down, and the evening arranges itself: two players, one hand-carved board, and a name on the lid that everyone at the table already knows how to say.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackgammon board with bronze hinges, clasps and a cut-out carry handle\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 beech, 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\u003eThe emblem of Georgia and the nation's name, both cut by hand into solid wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep relief carving that holds real shadow, right down to the scrollwork corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolds shut on bronze hinges and travels by its own cut-out carry handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA luxury backgammon set that looks as good closed as it does in play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift That Says Something\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it to the Georgian friend who keeps a flag somewhere in the house, or to the player who has been using the same tired board for a decade.
