This handmade backgammon set (nardi) is made of beech wood and plywood, with a 50 cm board, featuring an engraved Mount Ararat.
Mount Ararat, Armenia's national symbol revered as a "Holy Mountain", is engraved on the board. According to the Book of Genesis, Noah's ark came to rest here after the flood; its two peaks are Masis (5,165 m) and Sis (3,925 m).
The reverse side is laid out for checkers (draughts).
