This is a great collection of 19th century, Scottish antique indoor carpet bowls.
All eleven are made in solid lignum vitae, a very dense and heavy wood used in the 19th century to make cricket balls, lawn bowls and skittle balls.
The natural oilyness of the lignum makes the colour on these antique carpet bowls just lovely.
