Corbet — 'Backgammon Set', in Brass and American Walnut

$3,790

There is backgammon, and then there is backgammon. Designed as a feature piece for any room, this unique handmade walnut and brass set is a movable feast for the eyes and mind.
A walnut base encloses a solid brass machined board with a hand aged and waxed finish, complimented by both raw and hand aged brass tokens and dice. After gameplay, the tokens and dice seamlessly slot back into place to restore the set as a decorative room feature.
Each of these boards is hand made in small batches, subtle variations may occur.

 

Customized engraving available.
