6 Unexpected Ways to Shake Up Game Night
We’ve elevated classic games with polished, elegant materials and utterly precise craftsmanship, resulting in card sets and board games so beautiful you’ll want to leave them out long after a victor is declared. Game on!
1/ Cards
Next time you shuffle up and deal at poker night, know you’re linked to a fascinating legacy of socializing. Today’s iconic card deck is the result of a truly international design collaboration, with contributions spanning from East to West. The choice of suits, color scheme and layout of numbers and symbols were all thoughtfully composed and scrutinized by generations of players to become the 52-card deck we know. We reimagined the deck’s classic palette with new colors, like metallic gold and our signature Tiffany Blue®—and with custom printing and monogramming, you can create a deck that’s truly your own. It might be the advantage you need to win the pot.
2/ Yo-yo
Nothing shakes up game night like a friendly yo-yo competition! Test your friends’ dexterity with this beloved toy, a throwback to childhood fun and joy. Even in ancient times, it held worldwide appeal as an object of entertainment, used for performing tricks, testing one’s coordination and relieving stress. We take the yo-yo to the next level with luxurious materials. Sterling silver combines with American walnut, which is etched with the Tiffany name and flagship city.
3/ Dominoes
If you’re tired of watching your best mates beat you in poker, why not mix things up and surprise them with a game of dominoes to secure a personal win? Ever since dominoes were invented, their oblong shape, dot patterns and the pleasing sound when they fall in synchronicity has rewarded our senses. The Tiffany domino set celebrates these beloved iconic elements with newly imagined tiles crafted from American walnut and sterling silver, a welcome contrast of warm and cool materials.
4/ Chess
Inspired by the corrugated profile of cardboard, the chessboard and its pieces are the ultimate juxtaposition of high and low design—a hallmark of Tiffany’s creative process. Get to checkmate with our exceptional Tiffany 1837 Makers chess set, a work of unparalleled craftsmanship, taking over 80 hours to create. Displaying the virtuosity of our artisans, the craftspeople at Tiffany’s hollowware workshop crafted this set in sterling silver and 18k gold, replacing the classic black-and-white with lustrous metal.
5/ Pool Triangle and Ball Set
Our signature Tiffany Blue® comes to play. We shake up the classic billiard ball palette with our signature color to give your pool table a modern new look. The triangle is made from oak and stainless steel, crafted with just the right touch of character. All that’s left to decide is who’s stripes and who’s solids. Enjoy this handsome set in play and on display.
6/ Tic-tac-toe
Sometimes you want a lightning-fast game that can break a tie or kick off the night’s tournament quickly. Enter tic-tac-toe. Games featuring three-in-a-row boards date back to ancient Egypt. Romans also played an early version of the game with small rocks called terni lapilli, which means “three pebbles at a time.” This modern version honors the game’s original, tactile roots. Tiffany artisans reinterpret the traditional game with an American walnut board and sterling silver and amazonite spheres for a minimalist, elegant look.
