Old Handmade Wooden Dominoes in Great Old Slide Top Box carved sculpture as they house a bell

as they house a bell that chimes between them as they roll--look pretty ancient too

and that red toe and trim

and with great precision and care

Box measures 6 3/4" l x 3 3/4" w

or stick a flower in it and put it at the center of a festive dinner party table--perfect right next to a good bottle of Chianti

Old Handmade Wooden Dominoes in Great Old Slide Top Box carved sculpture as they house a bellIn my experience, old handmade wooden dominoes are actually scarcer than bone ones, so I'm always glad when I find them, and this set in a great old handmade slide lid pine box, with the name Amanda written in cursive, in graphite, on the underside of the lid.
