One of our most elegant travel backgammon sets, made entirely by hand by Italian craftsmen specialising in faux leather, with whom we have worked for many years.

The faux leather selected is of very high quality and will give you enjoyable games as well as a pleasant feel when handling the pieces. The playing surface is hand-worked eco-leather.

Practical and magnetic, this backgammon set lets you play wherever you are thanks to its carrying handle, and remains a delight to play on.

Size Guide (Pieces & Boards)

Matching Guide

Choosing the right board size

A beautiful chess set rests on a simple balance: pieces well proportioned to the size of the squares. To choose a harmonious board, the most reliable guide is the diameter of the king's base.

Key guideline: ideally, the king's base takes up about 75% of the square.

Traditional wooden chess sets

King height	King base diameter	Square size
7,3 à 7,6 cm	3,8 cm	4,7 à 5,1 cm
9,5 à 9,8 cm	4,4 cm	5,7 à 6 cm
10,1 cm	4,1 à 4,7 cm	6 cm
11,2 cm	5 cm	6,3 cm
12,7 cm et plus	4,4 cm	6,3 à 7 cm

Metal, resin, pewter, brass or themed sets

King base diameter	Square size
2 à 2,4 cm	2,8 à 3,5 cm
2,5 à 2,9 cm	3,5 à 4 cm
3 à 3,4 cm	4,3 à 5 cm
3,5 à 3,9 cm	4,8 à 6,2 cm
4 à 4,5 cm	6 à 8 cm

A board that is too small can hamper moves and make the set look cluttered. À l’inverse, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole. The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.
