Precious smooth solid ball of bone, yellowed by the effect of time. It has a shiny surface, and remains of red, probably because it was painted in this color, which gives it a very special patina.
This type of balls were for playing pool, so it probably comes from a game of pool. The ball has two opposing red points marked, which could be natural or product of the lathe axis with which it was made.
It has fissures caused by time, by the very structure of the bone.
