Furniture Games

This list should collect all games that have space in a house's forniture. Beauty is the only criteria by which the games are selected here! :-) These games can be put in your house's best room, out of their boxes, without shame, getting attention even by not gamers just for their beauty! Games that are not just made of colorful plastic but of nice materials, are small enough to fit everywhere (because generally they don't have a cartoon board) and have no sparse pieces like dice or cards! 8-) Please add whatever you like! Unfortauntely I couldn't add a large number of beautiful puzzles, solitaires and sports games like billiards and darts: consider them as if they were in the list.

Board Game: Abalone

Even if made of plastic, the large board with those sim-marble balls and the black base is fantastic!

A modern-style look with wooden pieces that may be fun to see and quick to play with non gamers, although the game is not that great as its look.

One of my favourite knickknacks. Is looks like an abstract always-different painting. Actually Gigamic is special in making these abstract looking games.

Never underrate a chess board fascination!

The presence of this classic ancient game, made with original materials, is a must for every gamer's house!
|
|
|
|
There are very nice board designs made of wood, marble, or transparent plastic that can stay in your important room!

As far as I know, this is the single best looking game ever created. It is beautiful to look at and is also a great game to play. A must have in any game collection.

This is one of the best: beautiful, modern, small and curious. Everyone is attracted by that pyramid made of balls until every ball falls on the floor! 8-)

Gigamic, again: nice materials and wonderful object
|
|
|
|
Another ancient game that can be very beautiful
|

Wow, what a look if you have a distant empty corner!! 8-)))

Although it is made of plastic, it has fantastic colours!
|
|
|
|
The board is not made of pure wood, but the impact is still good
|
|
|
|
I don't really like this game, so I keep it hidden! 8-) But you can spend thousands of euros on a single, fantastic board!

Quality bits and cards. Awesome looking board.

I almost forgot this! 8-)

I added this wonderful piece on request... 8-)

Just leave this game set up after play. The colors and shapes are wonderful. When it's time to play again, deconstruct the board and play the game. Ten minutes later, a new work of art.

Don't say I'm a fanatic for abstracts, this is beauty! 8-)
