Royal Royal Game of Ur

The Royal Royal Game of Ur is the second piece from our old and ancient board game series. Double royal due to the size of the board.
Hand carved into a solid Japanese Sophora wood, heavy due to the density of the timber. Checkers made out of lithography limestone and granite from our village in West Georgia.
