For the man who has everything, there is our Cigar backgammon set, which captures the smoky allure of games enjoyed after dark. A unique handcrafted gift for the connoisseur and cigar lover, the nostalgic design is perfectly at home in a bachelor pad, study or snug.
With the wisps of smoke curling upwards from the tips of the Cuban cigars, I wanted to capture a mood: of sharing a late-night game of backgammon with a friend, whisky in hand, completely in the moment.
Alexandra’s design perfectly captures the joy of playing a game of backgammon accompanied by a Cuban cigar: the warm browns of the tobacco leaves and the way in which a cigar slowly burns, releasing spirals of smoke.
Digitally printed with stunning photorealism on the board, the smoke is so lifelike you can almost detect it in the air as it drifts lazily upwards between the aromatic, aged tobacco leaf triangles.
Each element of the craftsmanship is overseen by an expert and authority in their art and finished to the most exacting of standards, from the exquisite joinery of the solid wood box to the fine leather craftsmanship within and the seamless, matte satin finish of the hand-lacquered board.
Elevate your backgammon experience with 30 exquisite semi-precious playing pieces, priced at £2,720. Alexandra recommends tiger’s eye and mother of pearl to complement her Cigar board. Personalise them with engraved initials or a special message at checkout.
