Antique Lignum Vitae Bowling Ball
-
Description
This is an example of an early 20th century Lignum Vitae bowling ball on stand. This ball was not drilled for finger grips, perhaps because of the split shown in the photos. The ball would make a great decorative element for a masculine study or office. Two balls on plinths available.
