About the Artist

In 1985, National Master Ohanyan began his fine wood craft, introducing a new approach to the age-old traditions of woodworking. After many years of dedication, Hrachya Ohanyan was established in 2010. This company creates a range of Armenian, classic and original models with high-quality raw materials. Thanks to the skill and expertise of the craftsmanship, each set produced is a work of art that garners admiration both locally and internationally.

14 Levels, Up to 200 Days
