Mount Ararat and Khor Virap Walnut Backgammon Board
Khor Virap means “deep pit” — and in that pit, tradition says, Gregory the Illuminator survived thirteen years before rising to convert a king and make Armenia the first Christian nation on earth. The little monastery that grew over the dungeon, with Mount Ararat towering behind it, is the most beloved view in the country — and it is carved in fine relief across this luxury walnut backgammon board.
Ask anyone who has stood there: the photograph everyone takes at Khor Virap is the one this handmade Armenian backgammon set holds in wood. Solid walnut, hand-carved and finished by hand, with the full 23.6" / 60 cm nardi field waiting behind the bronze clasps. A board for the family that keeps Armenia close, and for evenings when the game matters less than who is across the table.

Why it stands out
Mountain and monastery ask for two different hands — soft distance for the peak, sharp detail for the stonework — and this carving gives each its due. In solid walnut it is a substantial, serious piece: an Armenian backgammon board made to be handed down with the stories still attached.
