• A 19th century Cantonese carved and
  A 19th century Cantonese carved and red stained ivory puzzle ball chess set Kings 7.75ins Estimate ?300-500 Of the white side: King is possibly missing a small flag of finial to the top of the headpiece as there is a small hole visible a couple of tiny nicks to the queen one of the bishops with a few small little nicks to the edges of the robe other bishop with similar nibbling at robe one of knights does have its lance although this is detached but present one of the pawns has a replaced base disc all legs restored or with replaced ivory on another pawn and a third is detached in the centre at the screw thread which will not hold the upper section in place a couple of other little nicks and some discolouration to the underside of a few of the bases. All of the white side has odd light hairline cracks but nothing serious. Red side: King is missing small tassle to the top of the head piece couple of small nicks at the robe otherwise ok queen with discolouration patch to the base and two hairline cracks - one at the neck and one at the base odd little nick one of the bishops with chipping around the hat where the finial slides thin and two chips to the turned section between the base and the ball although this does not effect the base from screwing into the disc the other bishop with slight blooming to face a crack to the back of the hat and to the base section also with slight discolouration to the underside of foot. One of the rooks with 2 small discolouration patches to the edges of the foot odd little nick. One of the knights with 2 cracks at the base of the puzzle ball and a chip to the disc around the screw thread which screws into this. 2 of the pawns is glue repaired where the horse meets the platform a 3rd pawn with crack at base and small losses at the puzzle ball and a small hole in the foot another pawn glue repaired at the ball feet of the horse - rather messy in its finish. The final pawn - the ball finial will not screw into the disc base and that is in two sections. As with the white side there are several small blemishes to the underside of many of the feet it appears someone has tried to do the burn test to see these are ivory and with a flame as opposed to a hot pin. Odd small hairline crack otherwise good. Descriptions provided in both printed and on-line catalogue formats do not include condition reports.
