WHY CUSTOMERS CHOOSE US

Design

Our backgammon and chess sets go beyond gameplay. Each piece is created to stand against uniformity, bringing a sophisticated, refined, design-led aesthetic into your home. Manopoulos games are crafted to be both played and proudly displayed.

Craft

Every set is shaped through traditional artistry and meticulous craftsmanship. Gifted sculptors, designers and skilled artisans work together to create game sets that are truly one-of-a-kind.

Play

Backgammon and chess become an escape from the routines that weigh us down. Our games invite adults to pause, reconnect and turn everyday moments (even stressful ones) into something playful and uplifting.

Enjoy

Happiness thrives in meaningful moments. Take the time to unwind, share joyful play with family, friends or colleagues, and build deeper bonds with the people you love.

OUR HERITAGE

From Athens, With Passion.

Since 1970, the Manopoulos family has been crafting games that are more than mere objects, they are centerpieces for connection. Using the finest olive wood, mahogany, and mother of pearl, every piece is handcrafted in our Thebes workshop.
