Elegant, tactile, and rooted in centuries of tradition—this handmade Mancala board is crafted from two contrasting hardwoods for a striking, one-of-a-kind look. Whether you’re revisiting a childhood favorite or discovering it for the first time, Mancala is a game of strategy, movement, and rhythm that feels timeless every time you play.
Originating in Africa, Mancala is a two-player game where the goal is to collect more stones in your store than your opponent. Players take turns scooping and sowing stones around the board’s twelve pits, planning moves carefully to outmaneuver each other. It’s easy to learn, quick to play, and endlessly replayable.
Each board is made with care in Barrie, Ontario, using two species of premium hardwood—often a light/dark combo like maple and walnut, or cherry and ash—to highlight the craftsmanship and give every board a unique look and feel. The board is sanded smooth and finished by hand for a natural, durable finish that only gets better with time.
