The emerald epoxy running between the live-edge walnut slabs is translucent rather than solid, so the light goes down into the resin and comes back up again — deep green in the wide stretches, almost clear where the river narrows against the bark line. It behaves exactly the way real water does over a stony bed, which is why nobody who picks this board up puts it down quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything about the construction is deliberate. Two slabs of walnut, natural edges left intact, set apart at the distance the tree itself decided; emerald resin poured into the gap; the whole thing ground flat and polished until wood and resin are one continuous surface. The knots and figure that most workshops cut out are the whole point here — they are what the river flows around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the clasps, let the bronze hinges swing back, and the full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm playing field is inside, ready for a game five thousand years older than the technique that made the lid. That is a good tension to own: the oldest game in the world on the most modern surface the workshop knows how to build. And like every river board, this one exists exactly once.\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\u003e30 wooden checkers\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: 6 kg \/ 13.2 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood: solid walnut with emerald epoxy resin, bronze hinges and clasps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade in Armenia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Stands Out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA translucent emerald resin river you can see down into, not just across\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLive-edge walnut slabs with knots and figure deliberately kept\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood and resin ground to one continuous polished surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA luxury walnut backgammon board that exists exactly once\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift At the Top of the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the occasion that actually warrants it — a landmark birthday, a retirement, a very good year.
