Carrom boards of my dreams
I found these 2 photos of this beautiful double sided antique carrom boards.
I don’t remember where I found them so if they belong to any of my readers get in touch and I’ll post a link.
They are lovely, but I have no idea how old they are or where they were made.
Or how much it is worth. But my guess is it won’t be cheap.
Imagine the excitement when it was first bought.
I wonder who played the first games on it?
Did it belong to someone famous?
Who made it? I wonder how much the craftsmen were paid.
How much did it sell for, and where, and when?
I would love to be sitting in a beautiful garden, on a warm, still night, the perfume of flowers all around. and play a few games of carrom on this board.
It could be almost anywhere in the world, it wouldn’t matter.
Dream on.

Am I missing something? There are tons of antique carrom boards out there. I’ve got several from 1890’s to 1910. Not very expensive … $45 to $100.
