Backgammon is one of the oldest board games known, which can further be traced back to the ancient Romans, whose Duodecim Scripta (‘twelve lines’) shares striking similarities with the backgammon layout used today. Regarding this history, backgammon shall be played with an adequate set just like the Swinford backgammon from Ralph Lauren. A backgammon set in finest Italian leather and wood, contrasted by tokens and triangular playing fields colored in cream and gold tones assuming a truly royal appealing look.
