I'm looking to buy a 19" backgammon board, and came across the Silverman and Co brand.
The boards look very nice and of high quality (as much as can be judged by photos...)
It is also stated that Silverman and Co is an American brand, that manufacture the boards in the US.

I tried searching for the company, but couldn't find any company website, and actually - any mentioning that such company exist

Does anyone know about this company?
Will be happy to browse the company profile and background

Thanks !

Never heard of Silverman. You might try Crisloid, which is based in RI and makes good boards at a reasonable price.

From what I can tell, gammonvillage owns that brand. They’re really nice entry level boards than can be had for about $120 for their 19” ones. I don’t think you could find anything better at the price point. I bought my son one for Christmas this year.

I was recently gifted a custom Crisloid and I LOVE it. I’ve gotten to play on some real premium boards recently and I wouldn’t trade my Crisloid for any one of them.
