Luxury Board Games for Adults

Assouline’s Game Room collection brings together five classic games, each reimagined through contemporary design and craftsmanship. From a sculptural chess set to leather backgammon, oversized dominoes, playing cards and noughts and crosses, these luxury board games for adults combine familiar games with distinctive materials and details. Designed for both entertaining and display, they bring a considered touch to the home.

Luxury Chess Sets and Leather Backgammon Sets

The Empire Chess Set combines sculptural aluminium pieces with an inlaid pebbled leather board, framed in walnut and brushed brass. Its distinctive design includes a queen inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat, bringing an artistic touch to this classic game.

The Pebble Backgammon Set features a walnut case that opens to reveal an inlaid leather board, leather counters and hand-painted dice. Recognised by ELLE Decor among the most elegant board games of 2025, this luxury backgammon set combines traditional gameplay with carefully selected materials and craftsmanship.

Luxury Domino Sets, Playing Cards and Noughts and Crosses

The collection also includes smaller games with equally distinctive designs. The Pebble Domino Set features oversized pieces with leather inlays framed in walnut, presented in a box with a signature pebble-inspired handle. The Pebble Playing Card Set includes gilded-edge cards with illustrations referencing the Assouline family, while the Library Tic-Tac-Toe gives the classic game a literary twist, with its noughts shaped like miniature books.

Each set offers a different way to bring design and play into everyday moments, whether enjoyed with friends or displayed on a coffee table.

Designer Board Games and Luxury Gifts for Game Lovers

With their handcrafted details and distinctive materials, these designer board games make thoughtful gifts for players, collectors and design enthusiasts. A luxury chess or backgammon set is well suited to those who enjoy strategy games, while dominoes, playing cards and noughts and crosses offer options for hosts and casual players.

Made to be enjoyed and kept for years, these games combine the pleasure of play with the appeal of decorative objects. Discover the inspiration behind the collection in the Game Room, the second chapter of Assouline’s Library Collection.
