Limited edition backgammon boards
Milan-based gallery Dilmos presents Backgammon Beauty, a series of 4 backgammon boards in a limited edition, designed by Milanese architect and designer Valeria Molinari. The project, which includes four boards inspired by the elements Water, Air, Fire and Earth, stems from the concept of play as an existential condition. The four elements, Water, Air, Fire and Earth, can be found in any form of life, and therefore are universal. Each board represents its element through symbols and colors that evoke its characteristics; from flames to waves, trees to sunbeams, each piece is carefully drawn with watercolor, then covered with a layer of transparent resin.

The edge of the boards is surrounded by an easy-to-assemble frame made of wood, while the checkers are also made of resin, decorated one by one with a specific symbol depending on the element chosen. All pieces are decorated at the back with a specially designed resin plaque, which can be fully customized. The boards, which are also available in travel size, come with handmade cotton and linen packaging, signed with the designer’s logo, and embellished with two resin buttons, which pick up the colors of the selected element. The four game boards, complete with checkers and dice, are a limited edition of 100 pieces. The series is on sale at Dilmos, in Milan, from October 25 and throughout the Christmas season. Dilmos.it
