PittsburghMarbles Posted January 19, 2023 Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 The original would have been ivory, at least it looks like ivory and looks like it would have been from the mid 1800s. I 99.99% guarantee that ain’t an original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashbelt Posted January 19, 2023 Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 Yes its a replica of scrimshaw ivory board made I believe from resin - I've seen this one before. I think the outside hole pattern may be to receive small pegs for the card game cribbage. There are a few different designs of these faux scrimshaw boards around - I have a couple but don't display them as I think they're rather ugly!! No idea who made them or when but there are quite a few in the UK. I wouldn't give it houseroom if it was real ivory but that's just me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
