An antique game. Highly original 'Table Croquet' parlour game set, dating from the late Victorian or early Edwardian era (circa 1890–1910). This set was designed to bring the classic English lawn sport indoors, to be played directly on a dining table or billiard cloth. While the exterior shows its age, the interior components are remarkably well-preserved, making this a fantastic find for collectors of traditional antique games or unique home decor.
Key Features & Contents:
 
Cast Metal Weighted Hoops: Features a set of 10 original wire hoops with numbered, lead-weighted cast feet (some numbered). These are highly sought after by collectors as they stand freely without damaging table surfaces.
Premium Turnery: Includes 6 original hand-turned boxwood croquet balls and 5 long-handled miniature mallets with original painted band identifiers.
Original Wooden Storage Box: Solid wood construction with its original internal divider intact and functional brass hinges.
Condition
Interior: Very clean. The mallets, balls, and weighted hoops are structurally sound with fantastic antique patina and typical light play-wear. Three of the mallets have been repaired 
Exterior: The lithographed paper label on the top lid shows significant vintage weathering, including water staining, bubbling, and paper loss as shown in the photos.
Completeness: Missing the two vertical start/finish wooden stakes, but the primary gameplay components are largely beautifully intact.
