A delightful vintage English skittles set, full of charm and play. Skittles, the traditional game from which modern ten-pin bowling takes its origin, has been played in English inns, gardens, and village greens for centuries. The object of the game is simple and timeless—roll the ball to topple the pins, skill and chance combining in equal measure.
This set is crafted from wood, each piece showing a lovely mellow patina that has developed through years of gentle handling and cheerful play. The natural wear only adds to its character, giving a pleasing sense of history and continuity.
The set comes with its own wooden stand, neatly designed to keep all the skittles and balls together for storage or easy transport—a practical touch that enhances its appeal.
Hand selected in England and imported with care, this is a wonderful piece of traditional leisure—at once decorative, nostalgic, and ready to be enjoyed anew.
