Description

An early 1800s whitewood oval cribbage board with a central blue Bilston enamel plaque saying in faded lettering, 'A Trifle From Brighton', surrounded by a floral border. This is a very unusual feature and  would have been much more expensive than the more usual paper labels used.

The board stands on four turned wooden feet and has a space on the underside of the board for storing pegs.

The board measures 14cm l x 8cm w. A very attractive Georgian games board.

FAQs

Tunbridge Ware is a distinct type of decorative woodwork characterised by tiny mosaic wooden tiles forming pictorial designs, highly popular in the 18th and 19th centuries in England.

They were typically constructed from native and exotic timbers such as mahogany, rosewood, and maple, frequently embellished with inlaid veneers, painted decorations, or enamel inserts.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-drilled peg holes, aged timber patination, traditional joinery techniques, and genuine period ornamentation such as Bilston enamel roundels or micro-mosaic woodwork.

They can be displayed flat on a coffee table, mounted in a shallow shadow box on a study wall, or placed upon a bookshelf as a tactile decorative object.

Keep wooden items out of direct sunlight and away from central heating sources to prevent timber splitting, and clean gently with a dry microfibre cloth without using liquid polishes.
