The Perfect Pairing — Why Dice and Cup Belong Together

In backgammon, the dice and the cup are inseparable. One without the other is an incomplete experience and anyone who has played serious backgammon knows that the quality of both makes a genuine and measurable difference to the game.

A precision dice set ensures that every roll is as close to genuinely random as it is possible to achieve no bias, no inconsistency, no subtle advantage to either player. A quality dice cup ensures that the dice are thoroughly tumbled before they hit the board, adding a further layer of genuine randomness to every roll while bringing a ritual and theatre to the game that is one of backgammon’s most distinctive and enjoyable pleasures.

Together, a matched set of precision dice and a quality cup transforms the rolling experience from a functional necessity into one of the highlights of every game. At Chessgammon, we believe that every backgammon player deserves that experience and our collection of backgammon dice sets and dice cups is curated to make it accessible at every budget.

Backgammon Dice Sets — Precision, Quality & Fair Play

The foundation of any quality backgammon dice setup is the dice themselves. Here is what our collection includes:

• Precision backgammon dice — manufactured to strict tolerances with perfectly flat faces, sharp edges, and evenly distributed pip recesses that ensure genuinely random rolls every time; the choice of serious club and tournament players worldwide
• Casino-grade backgammon dice — the same quality used in professional casino backgammon; flush pips, razor-sharp edges, and a level of manufacturing precision that represents the very finest in dice making
• Luxury backgammon dice — beautifully finished precision dice in premium materials and striking colour combinations; for players who want the performance of a precision die with the visual appeal of a luxury accessory
• Standard backgammon dice — robust, well-made everyday dice in a range of sizes and colours; a practical and excellent choice for regular home and club play
• Doubling cubes — the essential accessory for serious backgammon; precision-made in a range of sizes and materials from robust everyday options to beautifully crafted luxury pieces

Backgammon Dice Cups — More Than Just a Container

A backgammon dice cup is so much more than a convenient way to roll your dice. It is a tactile object, a ritual tool, and in the finest examples a genuine work of craft in its own right. Here is what our dice cup collection includes:

• Leather dice cups — the most popular and traditional choice in backgammon; supple, warm, and deeply tactile; a quality leather dice cup fits naturally in the hand, produces a satisfying rattle with every shake, and develops a beautiful patina with use over time; available in a range of colours to complement any board and dice combination
• Suede lined dice cups — a premium option that takes the leather cup to the next level; the suede interior cushions the dice during the roll, producing a softer, more refined sound that feels more considered and deliberate than the sharper rattle of an unlined cup; the choice of players who want the finest rolling experience available
• Wooden dice cups — a distinctive and elegant alternative to leather; beautifully crafted from quality hardwoods with a smooth interior finish that delivers a clean, consistent roll; a particularly harmonious pairing with wooden backgammon boards
• Premium leather and brass dice cups — the finest dice cups in our collection; full-grain leather exteriors with solid brass fittings and suede-lined interiors; objects of genuine beauty and craftsmanship that elevate the rolling experience to something truly special
• Luxury dice cups — for players who want the very best; premium materials, exceptional craftsmanship, and a visual and tactile impact that matches the quality of the most luxurious backgammon boards in our collection

Matched Sets — Dice and Cup Together

For players who want a perfectly coordinated rolling setup, our matched dice and cup sets offer the most elegant and practical solution. A matched set pairs precision dice in a carefully chosen colour combination with a complementary cup in a harmonious material and finish creating a rolling setup that looks as good as it plays.

Our matched sets are available at a range of price points from excellent value everyday sets that offer outstanding quality for regular home and club play, to luxury gift sets presented in beautiful packaging that make one of the most impressive backgammon gifts imaginable.

Choosing the Right Dice and Cup Combination

Getting the right combination of dice and cup for your game and your board involves a few key considerations:

Dice size — the most common sizes are 16mm, 19mm, and 22mm; 16mm is the standard for club and tournament play, while 19mm and 22mm suit larger boards and players who prefer a more substantial die.

Cup size — your cup should comfortably accommodate your chosen dice size; most standard cups are sized for 16mm and 19mm dice, while larger luxury cups suit the 22mm size particularly well.

Material pairing — a leather cup pairs naturally with leather or wooden boards; a wooden cup complements wooden boards beautifully; premium brass and leather cups suit luxury boards of any material and make a powerful statement in their own right.

Colour coordination — choose dice colours that clearly distinguish the two players’ sets, and a cup colour that complements rather than clashes with your board; the most harmonious setups are those where every element has been chosen to work together as a whole.

Backgammon Dice Sets & Dice Cups as Gifts

A matched backgammon dice and cup set makes one of the most practical, thoughtful, and impressive gifts you can give to a backgammon enthusiast.
