Backgammon Imperial Golden Set
Backgammon The Sovereign’s Arena: The Golden and Chess Masterpiece (Edition 5)
In the hierarchy of traditional gaming, backgammon is the undisputed king of the social courtyard. The “Backgammon Golden and Chess (Edition 5)” represents the most refined iteration of the “Golden” series, offering a deep, high-contrast aesthetic that appeals to the modern collector and the traditional strategist alike.
This board is a masterclass in Damascene marquetry, where the “Golden” warmth of fruitwoods meets the somber, regal strength of ancient walnut. It is a Handmade vessel for logic, luck, and luxury.
The Intricate Geometry of Edition 5
Edition 5 is distinguished by its central “Mandala” of wood—a complex, multi-layered geometric star that serves as the heart of the backgammon field. This central motif is surrounded by:
-
High-Contrast Points: The 24 points of the board are inlaid with a dramatic alternating pattern of light lemonwood and dark walnut, ensuring zero visual fatigue during long matches.
-
Mother-of-Pearl Constellations: Unlike other editions, Edition 5 uses Mother-of-Pearl more sparingly but more strategically, placing it in clusters that resemble stars against the dark “night” of the walnut wood.
-
Structural Framing: The outer frame is thicker and more pronounced, giving the board a heavy, architectural presence that commands attention on any surface.
A Dual-Legacy Board: Backgammon & Chess
The genius of the “Golden 5” is its ability to transform. While the interior is a dedicated sanctuary for backgammon, the exterior is a flawless arena for Chess and Checkers.
The chessboard surface is hand-leveled to ensure that every square is perfectly flat. This prevents any “wobble” in the chess pieces, a common flaw in lower-quality boards. Whether you are playing the fast-paced game of Tawla (backgammon) or the silent, brooding game of Chess, this board provides the ultimate professional experience.
Handmade Integrity: Built to Last Centuries
When you invest in a set of this caliber, you are investing in a piece of furniture that is built to survive the test of time.
-
Kiln-Dried Walnut: The wood is specifically treated to resist the “movement” caused by humidity, ensuring the hinges stay aligned and the mosaic remains intact.
-
Natural Adhesives: Traditional techniques are used to set the mosaic, allowing the different woods to expand and contract together without cracking.
-
Artisanal Polishing: The board is hand-polished using natural oils, which penetrate deep into the grain to preserve the wood’s vitality and “Golden” glow for decades.
The Ultimate Gift for the Intellectual
A luxury board is a gift that carries weight. It is a sign of respect for the recipient’s intelligence and taste. Edition 5, with its darker tones and complex star motifs, is particularly suited for executive offices, private libraries, and as a milestone gift for weddings or anniversaries.
Conclusion
The “Backgammon Golden and Chess (Edition 5)” is the definitive statement in the Golden series. It offers a unique visual depth, Handmade excellence, and the versatility of two iconic games.
Experience the pinnacle of Damascene art and master the game of backgammon on a board that is truly fit for a sovereign.
