Customers overwhelmingly cherish this wooden dice set as a superior decorative accent. Reviewers consistently praise the exceptional craftsmanship, noting the smooth finish and satisfying weight of each piece.

Know before you buy
Yes, their solid Sese wood construction provides enough weight to support standard-sized books on a shelf or desk. However, they are best suited for smaller collections or as decorative anchors rather than heavy-duty library shelving.
The set includes one large die measuring 3.5 inches per side and one extra-large die measuring 6.5 inches per side. This variation in scale creates a dynamic, layered look when displayed together.
To preserve the natural wood grain, simply wipe the dice with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or soaking them in water, as these can damage the hand-carved finish.
Because each piece is individually hand-carved by artisans in Ghana, there will be subtle variations in the wood grain and texture. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the craftsmanship and ensure that no two sets are identical.
While they are shaped like traditional dice, these are intended primarily as decorative sculptures. Due to their size and the nature of hand-carved wood, they are not balanced for use in standard tabletop gaming.
