Checkers table and checkers set

€375 SALE! 50% now €187,50 SOLD Available 12th scale checkers table and checkers set by Johan Ulfman from Elly's estate. Johan Ulfman was a Dutch miniaturist who was famous for his superb inlaid furniture. This checkers table and accompanying box of checkers are a wonderful example of his work. The box itself is inlaid with two checkers in the sliding lid and contains a set of tiny wooden checkers. Unfortunately after the cats played with them, the set is no longer complete. However, there are still more than enough pieces left to set out a game in progress. Both pieces are fully signed on the bottom. Please leave a message if you are interested.
