On this handmade Russian backgammon set the map of Russia is inlaid in carved wood and set into swirling green marbled epoxy resin, so the outline sits solid in the middle of something that looks like weather or water or a very good malachite tabletop, depending on the light. It is the largest country on earth, and here it fits under one hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen is an inspired choice for it — not the blue of an ocean but the colour of forest, which is what most of that map actually is. Open the clasps, let the bronze hinges swing back, and the full 23.6\" \/ 60 cm playing field is underneath, ready for the game that fills Russian kitchens, dachas and courtyards from one end of the map to the other. Carry this wooden backgammon board in by its built-in handle and put it down wherever the tea is.\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\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 beech and walnut with green epoxy resin, 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 map of Russia inlaid in carved wood and set into marbled green epoxy resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResin poured and ground flush, so the surface reads as one smooth plane\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 wooden backgammon board where no two resin pours are alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Gift With Some Distance In It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the household a long way from where they started, and for the player who will spend the first five minutes finding their own city on the lid.
