Since 1958 Geoffrey Parker have been hand-making luxury games including custom chess set’s which was our first product, swiftly followed by backgammon, poker and a range of bespoke family games including custom monopoly.
Our team still work using the same traditional techniques, many of which were handed down from Geoffrey himself. Our workshops are still based in the shadow of his family home and it’s still run by Parker family members.
At Geoffrey Parker all of our luxury games are handmade to order; this means we can create as many, or as few bespoke items as you like. However, our luxury games do take time to handcraft so whether you’re ordering a luxury backgammon set or a custom poker set. We do advise all customers to order as early as possible.
If you are purchasing for a birthday or an event and have left it to the last moment, please still get in touch and we will see if we can help in any way. While we’ve recently become more modern and allowed our customers to purchase online, we do still require some traditional communication to ensure your luxury game is exactly as you imagined.
Once you place your order we’ll be in touch to confirm it and work with you on colours, personalisations and more.
