This miniature domino set will likely have killed many boring hours for its previous owners! The case is made from 18k rose gold, embossed with a floral pattern. There is a tiny tweezer fixed to the outside of the case, and the case opens and closes with a lid. Inside, you will find 23 tiny domino stones, made from mother-of-pearl. 

Domino was invented in the 13th Century in China and became a popular game in Europe too. Dominoes allow for a variety of games, as well as tests of skill and patience. The markings on dominoes, known as pips, originally represented the results of throwing two six-sided dice. The European dominoes variety differs from the Chinese version by adding seven extra dominoes—six representing the results from throwing a single die with the other half of the tile left blank, and one representing a double zero combination.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Size: The case measures 22 x 7 x 6 mm, excluding the jump ring. 

Weight: 3.38 grams

Age: Early 19th Century, also known as the Georgian era, circa 1820s. 

Material: The case and tweezers carry a ram head hallmark, used for 18k gold in Paris between 1818 and 1839. 

Condition: This pendant is in great antique condition, with only minor wear, consistent with its age. An original set of dominoes has 28 stones, this set only has 23, so five are likely missing. A few domino stones miss their original black backing.
