A classic game, reimagined for the island.

Backgammon has been around for centuries. We wanted to make a version that you'd actually be happy to leave on the table.

This one takes its inspiration from old nautical charts, island journeys and the colours of the Mediterranean. The board combines terracotta, ochre and cream with a compass design at its centre.

The playing pieces are handmade from Jesmonite in terracotta and white, giving the game a tactile, stone-like quality.

It's made for two players, whether you're playing at home, taking it away for the weekend or settling down for a game after dinner.

It's a good one for a holiday house, a long lunch, a weekend away or simply when you want to put your phone down and sit around the table.

Who is it for?

For travellers

A proper game to take away with you, whether that's a weekend in the country or somewhere much further afield.

For couples

A two-player classic for slow evenings, holidays and a little friendly competition.

For the hard-to-buy-for

Something a little different from another bottle of wine, book or pair of socks.

For design lovers

A classic game reworked with considered colours, materials and handmade details.

For Mediterranean lovers

A small reminder of warmer places, even when you're nowhere near the sea.

For Christmas

A gift that can be opened and played straight away, rather than something that ends up in a drawer.
