FAQs

Skittles is one of the oldest lawn and pub games in Europe, serving as the historical precursor to modern bowling. Traditional sets were handcrafted from dense hardwoods by local turners for village taverns and private estates.

Authentic antique skittles and balls are typically turned from dense European hardwoods such as beech, boxwood, or fruitwood to withstand repeated impacts during play.

Authenticity is identified through hand-turned lathe marks, natural wear patterns from use, dense timber weight, and patination consistent with age rather than machine-manufactured uniformity.

These sculptural wooden objects can be displayed grouped together on a large sideboard, within a bookcase, or arranged on the floor in an empty corner to add architectural texture and historic character.

Preserve antique wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity fluctuations, periodically treating the surface with a neutral microcrystalline wax to nourish the grain.
