300 Antique Monogrammed A Clay Poker Chips in Beautiful Oak w/ Inlay Box/Caddy with Metal Hinged Chip Holder This box is the work of a true craftsman. It has been constructed with heavy quarter sawn oak with all sides matching the grain perfectly. Just look how beautiful the grain matches from the body of the box to the lid.
I dont know how old it is but it sure has an amazing dark patina that only comes with age. Take a close look at the main photo and see for yourself. This box includes three convenient slots for card decks (no cards included) and a pull out rack containing the chips. There is minor damage to one end of the pull out rack which does not affect the integrity of the rack itself. The cover is exquisitely inlaid with intricate detail and is still in great condition with no missing or damaged inlay. The original black leather lining is still intact within the inside of the top lid. I believe there was a felt liner on the bottom but has been worn off over the years.There are 300 vintage clay chips monogrammed with an A within. 75 are red 75 are yellow 75 are blue and 75 are white/gray The red, yellow and blue chips are in very good to excellent condition with just hand full having done battle with cigars or cigarettes sometime along the way. The whitish gray chips are all in very used condition.
Clearly they have seen the most life due to fun low stakes games?? The box with chips weighs a full 12 pounds. The length of the base is 13 inches and the lid is 12.5 inches in length which adds to its visual appeal. The width is 9 inches with a height of 6 inches.Due to its age and obvious use, there are condition issues. There are the expected scratches, dings and dust/cleaning issues. My photography, as usual, is wanting but please be sure to take a good look at all of the enclosed photos. These will help determine condition, appeal and true value.
This is a very special and rare set which would be a standout in any man cave or poker room. Unfortunately, the key is not available but all the better to start play that much quicker!!
