California Walnut Burl Backgammon Set

The magnificent grain of California walnut burl is particularly striking. The heartwood colour leans more towards chocolate brown than the European variety, which is a more reddish brown.
Animated figures in dark brown to black wood give the wood a mystical aura.

The playing surface is a combination of California walnut burl with points in cherry and oak wood.

The playing surface is a combination of olive wood burl with points in wenge and walnut wood.

This backgammon set is handmade using the art of marquetry, a decorative technique involving the application of pieces of veneer to a structure to form ornamental patterns and designs.

Our craftsmen, experts in wooden games, use this method to create the interior design of the backgammon set.

The set includes: mother-of-pearl draughts pieces (15 in brown and 15 in ivory), 1 black doubling die (18 mm), 4 dice (14 mm), 2 dice-throwing cups and a velvet pouch.
