Wonderful and rare complete set of French pétanque boules in lignum vitae, set into a display / storage box for the four pairs of boules and a single jack ball, circa late 19th century.
Being lignum vitae, they are in great condition with them being such a hard and dense wood, the identification rings carved into each pair of balls are crisp and will be happy to be used as often as you like.
I have altered a French rosewood drawer that I had spare in the workshop, fitting four java bamboo cylinders and some metal rings the boules can be displayed as shown, or you may prefer to put them in a bag in the garden shed!
The diameter of the balls in 10cm and weighs approximately 1kg.
The box measures 21 inches or 53cm wide x 10 inches or 25.5cm deep
