Nothing beats a good old-fashioned board game. If you can do it in style too, then all the better. Okapi’s ostrich leather backgammon set is a truly elegant addition to any home. Easily rolled up and fastened, it unfolds to reveal a gorgeous leather board with checkers and dice. Crafted from ostrich leather which is a by-product from the meat processing industry, it has been made in South Africa and is entirely sustainable. It’s a thumbs up from us.
