Métier Travel Chess And Backgammon Set
Handcrafted using state-of-the-art artisan techniques, the Métier Travel Chess And Backgammon Set marries modernist design with unparalleled levels of craftsmanship.
Originally molded from clay by founder and designer Melissa Morris, the chess and backgammon pieces are inspired by Melissa’s favorite 20th century works of art and are a nod to her background in sculpture. They used hand-picked Ebony and Olive wood to carve the pieces. The natural markings and rich color of the wood make each piece truly unique. Tuck the game pieces away inside the beautiful Alcantara-lined game board and transport your set safely.
The Métier Travel Chess And Backgammon Set features reversible playing board carved from natural wood and is inlayed with precisely cut pieces in our signature Buffalo and Smooth Calfskin leather. It is also etched with an intricate border, created using the Métier symbol, and fitted with magnetic plates to allow you to play when on the move.
The hardware, as all of our pieces, has been crafted from solid brass. The hinges of the board have been remodeled to display our iconic 2:1 diamond, while the lock is created using the same signature mechanism as our signature Flip Lock.
