Description

Step into the rich history of African strategy with Morabaraba, a captivating two-player game played across the continent for over 1,000 years.

Inspired by the ancient traditions of Southern Africa, this set brings the art of tactical gameplay to life through a modern, artisanal lens. Often referred to as "African Chess," Morabaraba is a game of skill, foresight, and deep-rooted heritage.

The Artist’s Touch True to the Nico Meyer Art philosophy, these pieces are not mass-produced. Each "Cow" token is precision-sculpted using 3D technology and then manually refined in the studio:

• The Organic Patina: Following the same secret process as the Magic Bones, each token is hand-stained with a blend of organic coffee and tea. This creates a weathered, bone-like finish that feels like a family heirloom passed down through generations.

• Hand-Painted Details: The pieces are individually finished to distinguish the 12 light and 12 dark tokens, ensuring every set has its own unique character and grain.

What’s in the Box:

• 24 Cow Pieces: (12 Light & 12 Dark) Hand-finished resin tokens.

• The Play Pelt: A custom-designed textile game board that doubles as a storage wrap.

• Instruction Manual: A beautifully illustrated guide to the rules and traditional tactics of Morabaraba.

• Collector’s Packaging: Presented in a custom box
