Carved heads at the top, paw feet at the floor, and on the closed lid a large lion's head looking straight out at the room with a smaller bronze lion to either side of it. This is not a subtle table and it is not trying to be — it is a wooden backgammon table for someone who wants the furniture to have a pulse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen it and there is a full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm playing field, 32 checkers in beech and walnut, the dice cup sitting ready. A handmade backgammon table quietly changes how often the game gets played, because the setting up is already done. It stands there looking like it means business, and sooner or later somebody sits down opposite you to find out whether you do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolding backgammon table on carved lion legs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 checkers made from beech and walnut wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDice cup and dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed: 11.8 x 23.6\" \/ 30 x 60 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen playing field: 23.6 x 23.6\" \/ 60 x 60 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 27.6\" \/ 70 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 14 kg \/ 30.9 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTable material: solid beech wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChecker material: beech and walnut wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEntirely handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLion heads carved at the top of each leg, paw feet at the floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA carved lion's head on the lid, with a bronze lion either side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA real table at playing height, not a board you put on one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolds flat and doubles as a side table between games\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy a Lion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarvers have been putting lions on furniture for about as long as there has been furniture worth carving, and always for the same reason: a lion at the corner of a table says the thing was built to stay. Cut by hand, every head comes out a little different — the set of the jaw, the fall of the mane. Look closely at yours and you will find the tool marks that make it a face instead of a pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift Worth Giving\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHard to buy for, easy to impress.
