The box opens to reveal the gameboard made of perfectly cut original red, black and green leather inlay. Exceptional and functional, the backgammon board is the epitome of fine French recreation. Beyond the stunning materials and craftsmanship employed in its construction, this game set is further distinguished by its illustrious provenance.

After retiring at the young age of 35, the couple went on to amass one of the world’s most extensive collections of fine and decorative art.
