FAQs

Treen solitaire games gained popularity in Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries as portable pastimes for travellers and parlour entertainment.

These sets were typically crafted from turned hardwoods such as boxwood, mahogany, or fruitwood, paired with turned bone or ivory pegs.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-turned tool marks, natural patination of the wood, appropriate wear to the peg holes, and period-correct materials like bone rather than modern plastics.

Display the item on a bookshelf, coffee table, or side cabinet as a sculptural curiosity, allowing the rich textures of aged wood to add character to a room.

Keep wooden treen out of direct sunlight and away from humidity fluctuations, treating it occasionally with microcrystalline wax to maintain the finish without damaging the porous material.
