    Ivory dominoes

    We have a set of carved ivory dominoes at home, and were wondering if they are worth anything much?

    I am not sure of their age yet presumably they are quite old.

    I would be interested to find out.

    Hi Mr Fyles.............

    dominoes...........an interesting item, but not high up on the collecting lists.

    The most important thing is condition.
    If one piece was missing then it would be worthless.

    Also the box which they are housed is more important.

    A set in a cheep torn and ripped cardboard box worth very little.

    But if the box was ivory, carved in the style of what seaman did in the 18th century it would be quite valuable. Over £1000

    I have seen an old set in a box painted with a sailing ship on the box make .............£75 at auction

    Dominoes

    Ok thanks for that. They have currently been misplaced in the house but I will examine them when we find them again.
