Nestled in the winding alleys of Old Town Kos, Narkissus is a treasure trove of traditional craftsmanship and timeless charm. Each backgammon and chess set is meticulously crafted by hand, reflecting the ancient art of marquetry—where delicate walnut and oak veneers are inlaid into beautifully patterned boards. Walking through their door, you’re greeted not just by games, but by stories—the tactile elegance of smooth wood, the satisfying clack of solid checkers, and the lingering aroma of handcrafted quality.
Visitors often highlight the genuine warmth of the shop. Customers rave about the exceptional build and the friendly, personal attention they receive. Whether you’re browsing for the perfect travel-sized board or a grand walnut heirloom, the staff are known to guide you with care, sharing backgammon tales or explaining the craft’s finer details.
Beyond the game sets, Narkissus also showcases a rich selection of wooden kitchenware and decorative Greek products—each item echoing the same dedication to craftsmanship. Many visitors leave not only with a board to play but with a unique piece of Kos itself—a memento of tradition, artistry, and Aegean hospitality.
