MADE TO ORDER
Every Geoffrey Parker piece is hand made to order in the company's Essex workshops. Lead time is approximately 8–12 weeks for production, plus about 1 week for shipping to Canada; waiting times lengthen before Christmas. Larger orders may arrive in more than one shipment.
THE DESIGN
Bound in Dauphin leather with a beautifully hand-inlaid leather playing field — super fast, with no stitching to slow play. A solid wood carcass lies beneath the leather, secured by a pair of solid brass combination locks, gold or chrome plated to prevent tarnishing (key locks on the Compact Travel case).
THE CRAFT
Acrylic stones, flat on one side and finger-dished on the other, with an acrylic doubling cube and inlaid decals to indicate cube acceptance. A Crawford/Jacoby leather indicator disc is stowed in the hand-bound leather dice cups, which have trips to prevent unfair play. Precision dice come as standard on the Competition and Tournament sizes.
THE COLLECTION
Available as: Competition – 51 mm stones; Tournament – 44.5 mm stones; Challenge – 38 mm stones; Fireside – 32 mm stones; Compact Travel – 25.4 mm stones. Every piece is made to your specification from Geoffrey Parker's palette of 13 Dauphin leather colours (over 22,500 possible combinations of case, field and points). We will confirm your colour choices with you after your order is placed. Initials are embossed free of charge in gold or silver; additional embossings, company logos and custom designs are available at a small extra cost.
