Its surface carries an engraved Armenian ornamental motif. Armenian ornament is rich in motifs and comes in many types and forms, and this set shows one of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBackgammon has a long enough history to be counted, by most accounts, among the world’s oldest games, and despite the roll of the dice it is a game of logic: it favours players who think flexibly, work out the order of their moves accurately and decide without delay. Chess, the other game in the set, involves no luck at all. At this size neither game feels cramped, so the board suits long sessions at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 60 x 60 x 3 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Beech wood and plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: Engraved Armenian ornamental motif\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Varnished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: Brass hinges and locks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 5 kg (7 kg packed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Hrachya Ohanyan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 16003\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.
