Carved Bone Hnefatafl Set with Leather Board (Luxury Edition)

Experience Hnefatafl as it was meant to be played, with pieces worthy of a Viking chieftain. This luxury set elevates the ancient Norse strategy game through detailed craftsmanship and rich natural materials. Each of the 37 playing pieces is hand carved from ethically sourced water buffalo bone, polished to a satin sheen that showcases the tactile beauty of natural bone. This is more than a game—it’s a showpiece of Viking heritage.

Commanding Presence on Every Square

The attackers are carved from bone and finished in a deep reddish brown tone, while the defenders are presented in aged, antique bone for stunning visual contrast. Unlike simpler sets, each piece including attackers and defenders are in a 35x20mm format while the king is sculpted in a larger 40x20mm format, giving them weight and character on the board. The king is especially regal, with ornate detail that reflects his central role in the game’s dramatic battle of escape and defense.

Display-Worthy and Battle-Ready

The 11x11grid leather playing surface is soft yet durable, stitched with the traditional Tafl pattern and finished with a drawstring closure that transforms the board into a carrying pouch. Whether you're displaying it in a study, gifting it to a collector, or using it in immersive tabletop settings, this Hnefatafl set offers the ideal balance of historical accuracy, craftsmanship, and luxury. A perfect tribute to one of the world’s oldest strategy games.
