    Description

    Prepare for the return of an icon: the limited edition Genuine Aries Backgammon Set, exclusively crafted for Backgammon Connection. Relive the glory days of the 70s, an era of flamboyance and sophistication, where backgammon reigned supreme among Hollywood’s elite and business magnates alike.
    Celebrities like Lucille Ball, Omar Shariff, and John Huston epitomized the glamour associated with the game, igniting a fever that spread across the nation. Picture-packed clubs buzzed with excitement, offering unforgettable bouts of backgammon action.
    Enter Domingo Perez Aristi, whose visionary House of Aries put Mexico on the global fashion map. Inspired by a soirée hosted by Aristotle Onassis and Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Aristi swiftly manufactured leather backgammon sets for European fashion giants, sparking a trend among the rich and famous.
    By 1976, Aries House had become synonymous with luxury, supplying renowned brands like Christian Dior, Nina Ricci, and Hermes. Every esteemed backgammon player wouldn’t travel without an Aries set, cementing the brand’s international acclaim.
    Despite the challenges of the late 1990s, the allure of Aries backgammon sets endured, becoming coveted collector’s items. Now, in an exclusive collaboration with the new Aries manufacturer, Backgammon Connection fulfills a long-awaited dream: to resurrect these exquisite sets for a new generation of enthusiasts.
    This limited edition masterpiece includes stones, precision tournament dice, a doubling cube, and dice cups. Now Available at Backgammon Connection!
