The idea
The board becomes the bag.
Backgammon has traveled across the Mediterranean and Middle East for centuries. Here, its long points and round checkers are cut from leather and set into the bag itself.

All questionsWhat is Cherry & Blue?
Cherry & Blue is a fashion house designing collection-led leather bags. It works by collection rather than by season, and its first collection, N°01 Backgammon, sets a backgammon board into a leather tote and a leather duffle.
What is the difference between the Backgammon Tote and the Backgammon Duffle?
The Tote is the taller piece, 12.6 in high against 9.4 in, and carries the board on its front panel. The Duffle is deeper, 8.7 in against 7.5 in, carries the board on both its front and back panels, closes with a 23.6 in (60 cm) double-slider zip and stands on five metal feet. Both have a zipped central divider and a detachable shoulder strap, and each colorway of either is limited to 100 pieces.
