Late Victorian Solitaire Game - With Original Labeled Geological Specimens Instead of Marbles.

1900 - 1920
Sold by Culvertons
Description

This rare and attractive late 19th century game of solitaire is played on its original eleven inch, turned, walnut board.

Unusually, the marbles are not made of glass, but are all different geological specimens - the majority still have their original hand written labels - so each one can be easily identified.

The board has been sensitively restored and retains a lovely colour and patina.

Carriage is nearly always carried out personally within London, Surrey and Sussex - Delivery is free for clients within mainland Britain - Professional, competitive and trusted courier and shipping companies are engaged for the remainder of our customers.

We do strive to accurately describe and illustrate our stock within the 'Selling Antiques' website. However we do understand that it is not always possible to judge from photographs how an item will look within the home or garden. For this reason if notified within seven days from date of delivery we offer a full refund (less any agreed carriage costs) once the item has been returned.

Declaration

Culvertons has dated this piece to the 1900s.
