Backgammon Majestic Golden Set
Backgammon The Royal Gambit: The Majestic Golden and Chess Masterpiece
Backgammon is a game that bridges the gap between ancient heritage and modern intellectual competition. Known as one of the oldest board games in existence, its popularity in the Middle East has turned the construction of its boards into a high-form art.
The “Backgammon Golden and Chess (Edition 3)” is a testament to this evolution. It features a distinct “Golden” radiance achieved through the selection of premium, warm-toned hardwoods and intricate Mother-of-Pearl star motifs. This set is designed for the connoisseur who seeks a professional-grade playing surface encased in a museum-quality frame.
The Precision of the Golden Star Motif
What defines Edition 3 of this backgammon series is the central geometric focus. The interior playing field is anchored by a large, complex eight-pointed star. This star is a marvel of “Fosayfasa” (wood mosaic), where hundreds of tiny wooden rods are sliced and assembled to create a perfectly symmetrical celestial pattern.
The “Golden” hue comes from the natural colors of Lemon and Rosewood, providing a bright, inviting warmth. When the board is opened, this central star acts as a visual anchor, making the backgammon board a stunning conversation piece even when a game is not in progress.
Dual-Game Functionality: Chess and Strategy
This set is engineered for versatility, offering two world-class strategic games in one compact, folding unit:
-
The Interior: A specialized backgammon arena. The “points” are hand-inlaid with contrasting dark walnut and light fruitwoods, ensuring that players can track their positions with ease during intense play.
-
The Exterior: A flawless 64-square grid designed for Chess or Checkers. The squares are perfectly aligned with the grain of the wood, providing a smooth, durable surface for the most calculated moves.
This dual-purpose design makes the backgammon set an essential addition to any luxury game room or library.
Handcrafted Excellence: The Mark of Quality
The “Handcrafted” nature of this backgammon board is not just about aesthetics; it is about performance. Every detail is overseen by a master artisan in Damascus:
-
Material Selection: Only seasoned Walnut is used for the frame to ensure the board never warps, maintaining a perfectly flat playing surface for decades.
-
Mother-of-Pearl Inlay: Genuine sea shells are hand-cut and filed to fit the wooden recesses. This ensures the inlay is flush with the wood, preventing checkers from catching on the edges.
-
Professional Finish: The board is finished with natural oils and hand-polished to a velvet sheen, protecting the wood while enhancing its natural colors.
A Sensory and Cultural Experience
Playing backgammon on this board is a multi-sensory experience. The weight of the wooden checkers, the crisp sound of the dice on the solid walnut, and the smooth texture of the Mother-of-Pearl create a satisfying atmosphere that digital games cannot replicate.
By choosing this backgammon set, you are preserving a piece of cultural history. The patterns used in Edition 3 are inspired by the architectural geometry of the Great Mosque of Damascus, bringing the soul of the East into your home.
Conclusion
The “Backgammon Golden and Chess (Edition 3)” is the ultimate fusion of luxury, history, and strategic challenge. It offers a unique “Golden” visual profile, Handmade structural integrity, and the flexibility of two classic games.
