Wooden Dice in Ox Horn Resin Cup- Antique Vintage Style!
The game of Liar's Dice was brought to Spain by the Spanish conqueror Francisco Pizarro during the 16th century. Today, the game is perhaps best known for its appearance in the motion picture Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, but historical records also show that the game was popular on real pirate ships. The horn resin cup is made from horn resin measuring 2-3/4 High x 2-3/4 Diameter.

These reproduction playing cards are made from designs commonly used from the 18th to 19th century. Each deck includes 54 suited pirate-themed and numberless cards, including 2 Jokers. The face cards feature famous pirates of the time: Henry Every, Edward England, Stede Bonnet, Charles Vane, Calico Jack, Bartholomew Roberts, Howell Davis, Blackbeard, Anne Bonny and Mary Read. Jokers feature Captain Kidd.
The cards are printed on uncoated, quality cream-colored cardstock and are blank on the back, in order to keep the reproductions as accurate as possible. Cards from the earlier centuries were blank. But when they were used for poker it was discovered the blank backs could be marked with a smudge or other discreet marking for cheating. The joker wasn’t introduced until about 1875 in the United States. Numbers were first printed on cards around the end of the 18th century.
Great gift for the card-playing pirate lover!
