Dal Rossi Italy Blue Backgammon 15" PU Leather

Backgammon in blue, which is a braver choice than it sounds.

The same 15 inch case as Dal Rossi's walnut set, wrapped in blue PU leather instead of wood veneer. The colour is the point — most backgammon sets are brown, black or burgundy, and a blue one sitting on a shelf reads as a deliberate object rather than a game that got left out.

The PU finish is the practical choice as well as the handsome one. It wipes clean, it doesn't mark when it gets knocked about in a bag, and it shrugs off the sort of treatment a veneered case would show for years. Inside are contrasting points on a felt surface, with the checkers, dice and doubling cube stored in compartments so the whole thing travels as one closed unit.

Perfect for: Players who take the board to other people's houses, and anyone who has decided the games shelf could use some colour.
