A Timeless Classic, Beautifully Reimagined
Rediscover the joy of a classic game with this exquisitely handcrafted wooden Noughts & Crosses set, made in the Forest of Dean from premium hardwoods.
This isn't your ordinary game – it's a beautifully crafted piece that combines nostalgic gameplay with stunning artisan craftsmanship. The lift-off lid features gorgeous vintage-style typography reading 'Noughts and Crosses' surrounded by ornate decorative scrollwork, whilst the game itself is played in the base of the box, making it perfect for travel or keeping on the coffee table ready for a quick game.
Exceptional Craftsmanship
- Two-tone wood design: Beautiful contrast between pale birch playing pieces and rich walnut base (or ash base with walnut accents)
- Precision laser engraving: Crisp X's and O's on individual square tiles, plus ornate decorative engraving on the lid
- Recessed game board: Nine perfectly fitted squares hold the tiles securely during play
- Lift-off storage lid: Keeps all pieces safely stored when not in use
- Inlaid construction: Pieces are carefully crafted to fit perfectly in their recessed squares
- Extra pieces included: Comes with 6 X's and 6 O's (extras in case a piece goes missing!)
- Travel-friendly design: Compact box means you can play anywhere – perfect for holidays, pub gardens, or family gatherings
The Perfect Blend of Form and Function
This Noughts & Crosses set is as much a decorative piece as it is a game. The vintage-style engraving on the lid gives it a timeless, heirloom quality, whilst the natural wood grain and two-tone contrast make it a pleasure to look at and handle. The tactile satisfaction of placing each wooden tile, the gentle click as it settles into its square, and the beautiful craftsmanship make every game a delight.
At 180mm square, it's substantial enough to be a proper game but compact enough to tuck away or take with you. The lift-off lid means you can set up and pack away in seconds, and the recessed squares keep pieces in place even if the game gets bumped during play.
Perfect For
- Family game nights and rainy afternoon entertainment
- Coffee table décor that's actually functional
- Travel games for holidays, camping, or pub visits
- Teaching children strategic thinking through play
- Gifts for game enthusiasts and wooden toy collectors
- Grandparents who love playing games with grandchildren
- Housewarming presents with a nostalgic twist
- Anyone who appreciates beautifully crafted wooden items
A Thoughtful Gift
This Noughts & Crosses set makes a wonderful gift for families, grandparents, game lovers, or anyone who appreciates quality handcrafted items. It's the kind of gift that gets used and enjoyed rather than tucked away in a cupboard – a game that brings people together across generations. Perfect for birthdays, Christmas, Father's Day, retirement gifts, or as a special present for someone who has everything.
The vintage aesthetic and premium craftsmanship elevate it beyond a simple children's game – it's a beautiful object that happens to be incredibly fun to play with!

The Joy of Simple Games
In a world of screens and digital entertainment, there's something wonderfully grounding about a simple wooden game. Noughts & Crosses (or Tic-Tac-Toe) has been entertaining people for centuries because it's quick to learn, endlessly replayable, and brings people face-to-face for a few moments of friendly competition. This handcrafted version honours that tradition whilst adding a level of beauty and craftsmanship that makes every game feel special.

Frequently asked questions (that we know you're thinking)
"How long with it take to arrive?"
Ah, the age-old question. Our products aren’t mass-produced by robots in a warehouse the size of Wales. Nope — they’re lovingly crafted by real humans (with real caffeine addictions) in our Forest of Dean studio. That means:
Usually 3–5 working days to make your masterpiece. If it’s personalised, bespoke, or just plain fancy, it might take a smidge longer — but we’ll keep you posted.
Once it’s made, it’s handed over to the postal pixies. UK delivery typically takes 2–3 days. International delivery will take a bit longer (because oceans exist).
Drop us a message before ordering. We can sometimes work magic — but we’re fresh out of time machines.
While our website currently only supports UK shipping, we do welcome international orders! 🌎✨
Due to the complexities of overseas shipping and sales tax, we’re handling international orders manually for now. If you're outside the UK and would like to place an order, simply Contact Us and we’ll be happy to assist you directly.
We’re working hard behind the scenes to bring international shipping online in the New Year — so stay tuned!
Thanks for your patience and support 💛
Don’t worry — we’re not offended. (Much.)
If you’ve scrolled, clicked, zoomed, and squinted and still haven’t found the perfect product, it might be time to go rogue...
👉 Head over to our Custom Builds page and tell us what you really want. We love a challenge, and we’ve got the tools, the talent, and just enough caffeine to make it happen.
Whether it’s weird, wonderful, or wildly specific — we’re here for it.
