Description:

This khatam backgammon checkers set is inspired by traditional geometric artistry and presented in a hand-stitched faux-leather pouch.

Lightweight, polished, and thoughtfully patterned, these checkers are suited for daily use, travel, or replacing an incomplete set. The gold-toned star motifs within each piece lend the set a distinctive visual identity, blending ornamental tradition with practical design.

Artistry & Craftsmanship

Each checker features a smooth resin base, finished with intricate Khatam-style geometric motifs reminiscent of classical Persian marquetry. The glossy surface enhances the contrast and clarity of the gold detailing while ensuring durability suitable for regular play.

The faux-leather pouch is hand-stitched and securely closed, designed to protect the pieces while remaining compact and travel-friendly. It adds a considered finishing touch, making the set equally suitable for gifting.
