A folding backgammon and chess board with an eight-pointed star medallion at the centre of each leaf, set against a dense mosaic border that carries the same star geometry at smaller scale.
- Eight-pointed star medallion echoed at smaller scale through the border
- Dense mosaic border around the full field
- 25 in (64 cm) square, each chess square 2 × 2 in (5 × 5 cm)
- Supplied with backgammon disks and chess pieces
Repeating one motif at two scales is a Damascene device — it ties the border to the centre.
