Chess & Backgammon Set with Contour Outline, 30 cm – Model 31329

Small at 30 cm (about 12 in), this chess and backgammon set (nardi) fits two games into one compact set carved from a single piece of beech. Its main design feature is the contour outline that gives the model its name, and the chessboard is marked with carved letters and numbers.

Backgammon is thought to be one of the oldest games still played, and luck alone will not win it: it calls for flexible thinking, an accurate sense of which moves should come first and the ability to decide without hesitation. A set this compact fits a balcony table or a corner of a café table and still offers both games in full.
