In the market for coffee table books for decor? Instead, you can consider one of these designer-made games.
Hosting a game night is always a great idea to bond with friends and exercise your competitive spirit. Although games from traditional hobby stores do just fine, luxury houses are crafting their versions of well-known sets.
Instead of plastic and paper, brands like Prada and Tiffany & Co. use leather and 18k gold materials (also used in their fashion items). Needless to say, the price tags on designer-made games are far from off-the-rack ones.

However, you probably wouldn’t store them in a closet. Whether in-play or not, these sets can be worthy of displaying in your living room or coffee table tops.
Here are five decor-worthy game sets you can choose from.
LOUIS VUITTON Mahjong Trunk
The 168-year-old house started as a small luggage shop in Paris. To pay homage to its past, Louis Vuitton releases their newest trunk—which stores a complete mahjong set. It features two locks with buckles and six drawer compartments, and each box is made in either France, Spain, Italy, or the US.

HERMES Beach Rackets
Created by multidisciplinary artist Gianpaolo Pagni for Hermes, he played with the brand’s six letters to make this graphic design that’s reminiscent of a puzzle. The rackets adorned with the design are part of a beach collection that includes a bag and towel. The paddles are made of beechwood and cork and come with a silkscreen rubber ball.

Of course, their “game night essentials” are finished with their signature blue tone. The jewelry brand’s chess set, Tiffany 1837, takes 80 hours to make. The chess pieces are crafted with 18k gold and silver, replacing classic black and white.
