Made to our specialist commission, we present probably the nicest production traditional Cribbage boards currently available anywhere.
Developed in conjunction with a a talented English craftsman, the Crib boards are a large, chunky design suitable for pubs, clubs and other public environments. They also make a fantastic gift for anyone who loves beautiful wooden objects or premium traditional games.
More than a foot long, each board features a sumptuous cribbage peg storage compartment on the reverse of the board with a wooden magnetic sliding door. The pegs themselves are large tapered brass-plated scoring markers. Each board comes with six pegs – 4 for scoring in the traditional way and two more for keeping track of the number of games using the strip of holes running down the central area.
The board is available in four different styles – Traditional Oak, Character Ash, and two further designs with a stylish ornamental raised stringing design along the central area of the board. Please note that due to natural variations in Ash wood, Character Ash boards may differ significantly in colour and pattern from one another. See images for examples.
Cribbage boards can also be used for scoring all manner of other sports and activities. Popular games that often use a crib board include Bar Skittles, Pub Quoits, other card games, Table Shuffleboard, dice games, Ringboard and Bagatelle.
Cribbage boards, invented in the 17th century are a work of simplistic design genius. Double scoring pegs for each player means players never lose track of the score, spaces every five holes means it’s quick to peg up large scores and the double track means the board remains compact. The basic format has stood the test of time for centuries and these boards exemplify that tradition in every way. Hand-made in England with a quality commensurate with Masters Traditional Games reputation, they are the perfect way to play the King of all card games.
