� the orange one is sold out; I have
the other colors.
� these chips are not mother-of-pearl.
I placed them here for lack of a better place. Some
have called them enamel; I don't know. They are made of
glass and a metal like copper, and are pictured in the
last two color plates (near page 109) of the Revised Edition of
"Antique Gambling Chips." I intentionally broke the the
light blue chip above so I could examine the construction of
the chip. Note that there is a copper-like rim and copper ruffled
core to the chips, and colored glass on both sides of the ruffled
core, which creates the fan design -- but the finished chip is flat and
smooth on the surface. ........ I consider these to be quite rare.
I have come across these only once, and I do not know of others who
have sold them.
� Lynn S., who bought one of these, said, " I just received
the package of gambling chips, and love them all. Thank you. I can tell
you about the purple one with the radiating lines fanning out from a
center point, now that I can actually see it. It is �guilloche enamel�.
From the pictures in Dale Seymour�s book, I thought they actually had
ridges you could feel. The 3-dimensional effect is unbelievable. This is
a technique used a lot in the late 1800s, on up to the present, on jewelry,
fancy dresser sets, cigarette boxes and compacts. Faberge used it for
most of the mirror and picture frames and the eggs he made for the Russian
Czar before the revolution. "

� size -- 1-5/16." 2 mil. thick.
� condition -- very fine-excellent.
The chips capure the light and shimmer very nicely. The
picture here capured this almost too well. The chips are mostly
white looking, but when you tilt them to the light, they are particularly
nice and colorful. |
