FAQs

Draughts and backgammon are among the oldest board games known to history, with ancestors dating back thousands of years. By the Georgian and Victorian periods, portable gaming sets crafted from turned wood, bone, or ivory became staple parlour entertainments for middle and upper-class households.

Antique gaming counters were typically fashioned from dense hardwoods such as boxwood, ebony, or rosewood, as well as natural materials like bone and ivory. Craftsmen used foot-operated lathes to turn the wood, creating concentric circular ridges and recessed centres on each piece.

Authenticity in antique game pieces is determined by examining the tooling marks, material ageing, and wear patterns consistent with hand-turned manufacture. Genuine older sets often exhibit subtle irregularities from lathe work, appropriate surface patina, and minor oxidation on the wood.

Antique game sets add intellectual charm and tactile interest when displayed thoughtfully on a coffee table, bookshelf, or within a gentlemans library setting. They can be arranged neatly in a stack or displayed spilling out of their original wooden box to highlight their craftsmanship.

Preserve antique wooden counters by keeping them away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and moisture fluctuations to prevent wood splitting. Periodically apply microcrystalline wax to nourish the wood surface and protect the finish from handling wear.
