Delivery EstimateWarm travertine makes a neutral background for dramatic black and rose marble. Skillfully combining the colors of natural stone, the Sierra Family crafts a backgammon set sure to provide hours of retos (challenges). The playing pieces are sculpted from rose and black marble, and the game set includes three dice; the numbers on the betting die are traced by hand.
Because each piece is crafted of natural stone, there may be slight variations in color and grain from that pictured.
