The design

Tric Trac, the game of backgammon

Tric trac is the old name for backgammon. The pattern borrows its points: long, narrow triangles that alternate, light glaze next to dark stone. Under a white plate it makes the whole setting stand out.

The base is a 0.6 cm slab of Etna lava stone. The glaze is applied by hand and then fired in the kiln, so every charger has small differences in colour and pattern.

Under a dinner plate it frames the place setting and protects the tablecloth. On its own it becomes a platter for cheese, cured meats or sushi in the middle of the table.
