At Forwood Design, we’ve always had a soft spot for beautifully made games, and our high quality Backgammon sets are no exception. Whether you’re playing at home or on the move, a well-crafted board makes all the difference—not just to how it looks, but how it feels. That satisfying “clonk-click” of the dice and checkers on wood? It’s part of the game’s charm, and one of the many reasons we prefer wooden backgammon sets over other materials like leather or fabric.
Backgammon boards come in all shapes and sizes—rectangular, round, even horseshoe-shaped—but we’ve chosen to focus on the standard size, with 38mm checkers and a 500mm x 500mm playing surface. It’s the perfect balance: large enough for a comfortable game, yet compact enough not to dominate a room. For the backgammon enthusiast on the go, we also offer a beautifully designed travel backgammon set, lightweight and easy to slip into your travel bag.
While professional and championship boards can be impressively large, we believe that practicality, playability, and aesthetics are what truly define a high quality backgammon set. Ours are designed to look beautiful on a coffee table and feel just right in play—crafted with care, attention to detail, and our signature finishes.
Whether you're a seasoned player or giving a thoughtful gift, our backgammon sets bring a timeless elegance to one of the world's oldest and most loved games.
