Rosewood is one of the most cherished and sought-after woods in the world. Its colour ranges from glossy chocolate brown to purplish-black, with cream-coloured sapwood (the part corresponding to the most recently formed growth rings), all richly saturated with vivid contrast. Owing to its varied characteristics, rosewood is regarded as one of the most beautiful and most coveted woods in the world.
The playing board is a combination of rosewood with inlaid points of black maple and light oak.
This backgammon set is handmade using the art of marquetry, a decorative technique that involves applying pieces of veneer to a structure to create patterns and ornamental designs.
Our expert craftsmen use this method to create the interior design of the backgammon set.
The set includes: mother-of-pearl draughts (15 brown and 15 ivory), 1 doubling cube (18 mm), 4 dice (14 mm), 2 dice-throwing cups and a velvet pouch.
A luxury rosewood backgammon set featuring a selection of beautiful materials and exquisite finishes.
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.
| 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 |
| 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.
