Folding Hand Carved Backgammon Set, "Inner Secrets"
Shaped within a diamond, a brilliant flower adorns this splendid hand-carved backgammon set. The craftsmanship is unique, as the board displays Ketut Sandi's expertise and imagination. He uses manual tools to carve the detailed imagery from cempaka wood. The checkers and dice are all carved by hand from sono wood; the lighter pieces are carved from the external part of the wood.
