Lot Details

Description

Inspired by the traditional board games she played with her step-grandfather as a child, Alexandra Llewellyn's 'Photographic' backgammon set celebrates the magic of play. Measuring 60 x 77 x 5cm when open, the exquisite tournament-sized wooden board is made from London oak and has passed through no fewer than nine craft workshops and countless artisanal hands on its journey from sketch to realization. It's printed with lifelike Redspot Sawtooth, Black-Veined White and Apollo butterflies that graduate in size, mirroring the blue chevrons, and includes textured leather-wrapped counters and shakers, a doubling die and laser-cut dice. Let it take pride of place on your coffee table between matches.
