Details

Warm travertine makes a neutral background for dramatic black and rose marble. Skillfully combining the colors of natural stone, the Sierra Family crafts a backgammon set sure to provide hours of retos (challenges). The playing pieces are sculpted from rose and black marble, and the game set includes three dice; the numbers on the betting die are traced by hand.

Because each piece is crafted of natural stone, there may be slight variations in color and grain from that pictured.

“Great Board”

The backgammon board is beautiful and arrived quickly. The package was well wrapped to avoid any chips or breaking of the detailed craftsmanship. Great gift for the family who enjoys games.

“Lovely Little Green Apple”

This apple reminds me of Bobby Goldsboros song LIttle Green Apples. I did not know that onyx could be green. It is the perfect color for this sculpture. Right now it is my one and only paperweight. I think it might also make a wonderful kitchen decoration.
