Corbet
Corbet — 'Backgammon Roll', in Leather and Brass
Featuring a laser-etched leather roll, hand-stitched and set into a custom gloss black resin holder, this portable set comes with slots to neatly hold the solid brass tokens and dice. It is the one rollup that you can’t eat.
Unroll and you are ready to play. When you’re finished, roll it back up in seconds. Solid brass dice and tokens make playing in the spring wind a breeze.
The laser etched leather board will develop scratches, and scuff marks over time giving it a distinct patina unique to you.
Customized engraving available.
