In the heart of Morocco's ancient city of Fes, the air is thick with the scent of spices and the sound of artisans at work. Among the labyrinthine alleys and vibrant souks, one can discover the atelier of Julien McRoberts, a master craftsman renowned for his exquisite hand-carved backgammon sets. This photograph showcases one of Julien's masterpieces, a backgammon board adorned with intricate marquetry inlays. The wooden board, with its rich, warm hues, is a testament to the artist's dedication and skill. Each piece is meticulously carved by hand, reflecting the unique character of Moroccan craftsmanship. The backgammon set, a cherished pastime in Morocco, is not only a game but a work of art. The inlays, made from various woods and precious stones, add an ornate touch to the board, making it a true treasure for collectors and connoisseurs of fine art. The photograph, captured by Danita Delimont, beautifully encapsulates the essence of Fes - a city steeped in history, tradition, and artistic excellence. The intricate details of the backgammon set, juxtaposed against the rustic background of the workshop, offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Morocco. Whether used for a friendly game or displayed as a conversation piece, this hand-carved backgammon set is a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship that can be found in the most unexpected places. A visit to Fes is not complete without experiencing the magic of Julien McRoberts' workshop and witnessing the creation of these stunning works of art.
