Description:
- Game of Dominoes, dated between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.
- The uniqueness of this Game is its extraordinary state of preservation, which gives it a special interest, product of having been carefully and carefully preserved.
- The Game is complete, with its 28 Tokens, and its original box.
- The Tokens are handmade, with an average quality in their realization, being able to observe small defects of execution.
- Each Card is made in Two pieces, one of Bone in its upper half or face and another of wood in its lower half or underside. Both parts are attached to each other and fixed by a brass bolt that crosses them through its center.
- The value points are located on the face, which are made by hand using a circular slit, so they do not maintain perfect symmetry. The value points are painted black, a painting from which numerous small fragments have been lost, as can be seen in the photos.
- The box is made of wood, with a low quality in its elaboration. The cover has an edge bar as a handle for opening, detail that requires its manufacturing time between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, instead of the nail that have other later boxes.
- No Brand or Inscription has been found, which could provide data of its place of manufacture, as well as the Craftsman or Workshop that participated in its execution.
