FAQs

Table croquet is a miniature indoor adaptation of the traditional lawn croquet game, designed to be attached to a dining or billiards table using brass screw clamps. Introduced in the late nineteenth century during the Victorian era, it allowed enthusiasts to play the sport indoors during winter months or inclement weather.

These sets typically feature turned hardwood mallets and balls, solid wood storage boxesoften pine or mahoganyand cast brass table clamps. The hoops are constructed from bent wire mounted on weighted metal or wooden bases, accompanied by woven cotton webbing for perimeter boundaries.

Authentic nineteenth and early twentieth-century sets often bear maker marks from notable London manufacturers such as F.H. Ayres or Jaques & Son inside the lid or on the wooden box. Look for hand-turned mallets, period-correct brass hardware with natural surface patination, and original hand-painted wooden components.

An open boxed game set works effectively displayed on a coffee table, bookshelf, or sideboard, adding historic character and texture. Displaying the mallets, brightly coloured balls, and brass fittings alongside contemporary books or ceramics creates a curated display.

Keep the set in a temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight and humidity fluctuations to prevent wood warping or paint cracking. Clean wooden components and painted balls gently with a soft dry cloth, and apply clear microcrystalline wax sparingly to preserve the wood finish and brass fittings.
