An early to mid 19th century turned yew (or fruit) wood covered gaming cup with 9 hand carved and painted bone die c1820-50. The box retains some of its original red stain and it measures 2-1/8" tall and 1-1/4" across the top. The dice are also 19th century vintage, and measure 3/8" (largest), 5/16" (medium) and the remaining seven are 1/4" across. This gambling or gaming item is in excellent original condition with no chips, cracks, scrapes, losses, damage or repairs other than the loss of much of the original red staining. It is a little smaller in size than usual, doubtless to make it easy to conceal if necessary... All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted.
