Early 20thC Set of Large French Wooden Skittles

An early 20th century set of 9 large French skittles, also known as 'Jeu de Quilles' or Nine-Pin Skittles. They are made of turned wood, probably beech, and are attractively painted. They have metal tips, but these are missing from a couple. The set is complete with its original wooden ball. These skittles have been well used and show some wear as a result, but this adds to their appeal. 

Condition: original condition commensurate with the age of the set, with some chips, splits and general wear.
