“Each game creates a setting where memories are made, and people come together in the best celebration of humanity.”

- Alexandra Llewellyn

The human instinct of play takes on a particular magic in the work of Alexandra Llewellyn, an English fine artist best known for creating intricately detailed game boards.

Each travel backgammon set is hand-fabricated, paying homage to the materials as well as to the very idea of entertainment and connection. Her process incorporates spontaneity and stillness - every set a treasure, every roll of the dice a memory.
