Dal Negro Wood Backgammon Set – Rodi

Description

Rodi, the Italian name for the Greek island of Rhodes, lends its name to this exquisite wood backgammon set from Dal Negro, featuring classic island sapphire blue and snow white coloring.

Historically, Rhodes was famous for the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Perhaps this beautiful backgammon set should be considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World.

With a solid maple wood frame, this elegant case opens up to reveal a colorful tulip wood playing surface, featuring inlaid aqua and marine points, with tasty mother-of-pearl designed checkers that should come with a “Do Not Eat” warning sign.

However, it doesn’t just look extraordinary. You will also appreciate the “invisible” cylinder hinges that add a touch of sophistication to this backgammon set, as well as the meticulously concealed magnetic closures, both Dal Negro trademarks and a sign of quality craftsmanship and materials.

This heirloom quality backgammon set comes complete with dice cups, dice, doubling cube, velvet pouch, and rules booklet.
