AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant vintage Italian BI-ASS poker set in walnut – complete and never used
Splendid and elegant tabletop game set produced by BI-ASS, a historic Italian manufacturer based in Settimo Milanese, dating from the 1950s.
The box is made entirely of walnut wood, enhanced by a refined natural decorative grain on the lid, which adds depth and high aesthetic value. The craftsmanship is high-quality, with careful workmanship and top-level details, including the wooden-integrated hinges, typical of artisanal production of the era.
The set is designed for multiple players and consists of five removable individual cases, each complete and perfectly organized. All elements are present, with no missing parts.
Particularly notable are the original rectangular chips (casino plaques), of high quality, made in vintage plastic material (celluloid/acrylic type) with a refined mother-of-pearl effect. The values are engraved and then filled, resulting in a slightly raised feel to the touch: a detail that testifies to superior and sought-after workmanship. The chips feature bright colors and a lustrous finish, with an elegant iridescent effect.
The set also includes:
• 5 dice (one for each position)
• 2 decks of BI-ASS original playing cards, still sealed in the original packaging
• central tray lined with green velvet for the table
The set is unused: the cards are still sealed and all internal elements are in as-new condition. The wood is in excellent condition, free of scratches or obvious marks. Except for a tiny scratch on the outside side as shown in the photo.
Box dimensions:
• Length: 64 cm
• Width: 32 cm
• Height: 7 cm
Weight: 8.6 kg
A highly fascinating item, ideal for both collectors and as a prestigious decorative piece. It represents an excellent example of post-war Italian design linked to the world of games and entertainment.
Shipping: it will be securely packed with protective materials, insured and trackable. It will be shipped to the pickup point closest to your home.
