Beech is a pale timber with a straight grain and a fine, even texture. The board bears the eternity sign, and the letters and numbers of its chessboard are carved as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Armenian the sign is called arevakhach: a sun-like wheel whose arms appear to turn around a centre, their number varying from one example to the next. For the medieval Armenian world, the wheel expressed the idea of an eternal, heavenly life. Backgammon, considered by many one of the oldest games, is a logical game that values flexible thinking, precise calculation of moves and quick decisions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 40 x 40 x 3 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Beech wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: Eternity sign (arevakhach)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Varnished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: Cast bronze hinges and locks; carved letters and numbers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 3 kg (4 kg packed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Hrachya Ohanyan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 31376\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 chess pieces and 32 backgammon checkers in beech and walnut wood, each with a velvet-lined base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDice made from billiard balls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBranded carry case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted from start to finish, each set is backed by a 25-year guarantee certificate.
