ABOUT PRODUCTID 4497
This pre-war domino set from circa 1900, crafted in Germany, stands out for its classic material composition and refined simplicity of form. Each domino piece is made from dark ebony wood and natural bovine bone, joined with small bronze pins—a detail that both reinforces the structure and highlights the artisanal character of the object. The dominoes are housed in a rectangular wooden box with a sliding lid; the shellac finish adds a subtle, semi-matte sheen and warm honey-brown tone, characteristic of late 19th- and early 20th-century utilitarian pieces. The box displays gentle patina and fine scratches, while the completeness and originality of the set have been preserved. The dominoes feature smooth, rounded edges, deeply inlaid contrasting dots, and naturally variegated bone surfaces, evoking a distinct antique quality free from unnecessary ornamentation. The overall condition is very good for its age—only minor traces of use, slight nicks, and gentle discoloration on the box edges are present; the set appears unrestored, maintaining its authentic historical integrity. In both touch and appearance, this object tells a story of an era when simplicity and solidity defined the prestige of everyday items. Ebony and bone—
