Walnut is a beautiful tree that symbolizes confidence and mental wisdom.  The heartwood of the tree can range from a lighter pale brown to a dark chocolate brown with darker brown streaks. Color can sometimes have a grey , purple or reddish cast.  The handcrafted Walnut Backgammon with side racks is available in 2 sizes.  The playing field is a combination of walnut with oak & black color points.

This backgammon is handmade using the art of marquetry (also spelled as marqueterie) which is the art and craft of applying pieces of veneer to a structure in order to form decorative patterns and designs.
Our skillful staff use this method in order to create the interior design of the backgammon.

The Staunton chess pieces, the ones we know and love, the ones we simply think of as chess pieces. These classic chess pieces are named after Howard Staunton who was widely considered to be one of the best players in the world. The knight, the most intricate and distinct piece of any chess set, is a realistically carved horse head. The Staunton Knight was likely inspired by a sculpture on the east pediment of the Parthenon. The Metal Staunton by Manopoulos reinforces this architectural history of the original pieces while respecting their timeless design.

Our premium quality chess collection is the result of gifted sculptors’ inspiration and high level workmanship with a deep respect in the ancient Greek civilization. The use of the most advanced technology of die casting and metal plating and the choice of the best materials give our customers a 5-year guarantee. The chessmen are varnished and finished off by hand. We are proud to produce this unique chess collection engaged to great cultural value.
