MANOPOULOS - WENGE WITH WALNUT BURL INLAID BACKGAMMON

HANDCRAFTED IN GREECE
Manopoulos has made games in Greece since 1970 — from Costas Manopoulos’s first bronze chess pieces to today’s workshop in Thebes, where every board is still cut, veneered and finished by hand. This piece comes to Canada exclusively through El Laguito Cigars.

SHIPS FROM CANADA — NO DUTIES, NO SURPRISES
Dispatched by El Laguito Cigars from Mississauga, Ontario, and priced in Canadian dollars. We import directly from the Manopoulos workshop, so there are no duties, brokerage or customs fees at your door. Each piece is made to order in Thebes: please allow approximately 25 days for production, plus 7–10 days for delivery within Canada.

THE DESIGN
A dark wenge board inlaid with figured walnut burl — the same pairing as the Manopoulos side-rack board, in the classic fold-over case.

THE CRAFT
Inlaid by hand in the Manopoulos workshop in Thebes using marquetry — veneer pieces cut and fitted to form the points and border — then finished by hand.

IN THE BOX
Board, a full set of 30 checkers, dice and dice cups.
