Lignum Vitae Bowling Ball on Stand

About the Item

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.
