Object description :

"Twenty One Stained And Natural Pear Wood Games Pieces. Nuremberg, 18th Century."

Twenty one stained and natural pear wood games pieces.

South German, Nuremberg, 18th century.

Similar games pieces are often signed ‘PHM’ for Philipp Heinrich Müller (1654–1719).

There are eleven stained pear wood pieces and ten natural pear-wood pieces.

Each measures 5.2 x 1.2cm.

The games pieces are decorated with busts, commemorative medals, cities, figural scenes including interiors, daily life and great battles, German / Austrian cities and figures from the engravings of Jacques Callot (1592-1635).

Many of the stained wooden pieces remain in good, reasonably crisp condition whilst many of the lightwood pieces are worn, some to the point of being unreadable.
