Made by the last German indoor games manufacturer that uses marquetry: in this first class backgammon set and in a compact compendium of games that comes in a travel box with magnetic playing pieces.

Backgammon is said to have originated in Greek and Turkish coffee houses called ‘Tavli’ or ‘Tavla’. The idea, as we are sure you all know, is to withdraw your own checkers from the enemy ranks unharmed, at first partially and finally completely. You’ll be impressed by the elegance of our backgammon set –which makes a favourable comparison with the sometimes garish versions in leatherette cases, with flattened dice shakers (which devotees can really do without), and in hideous colours.

Not suitable for children under 3 years. Risk of suffocation due to small parts that can be swallowed.
