This fabulous set of wooden skittles will bring hours of fun to young and old. Each set comes with ten beautifully turned hardwood skittles and three hand crafted wooden skittle balls.
The skittles are each 23 cm high and have a clear varnish to protect and highlight the natural features of the timber. The king pin has a red painted top and the skittle balls are painted black in the traditional way.
Players score by rolling each of the three balls to knock as many of the pins down as they can. This set allows you to create your own 10-pin bowling alley or play the old nine-pin variation where points are only scored if the king pin has fallen.
This is seriously great value for a quality set of good sized skittles. Similar sets sell elsewhere for much more and often do not have the tenth pin.

Skittles is a popular game that involves a combination of strategy, skill and a bit of luck. Players take turns rolling a ball with the aim to hit pins arranged in a triangular or diamond shape at the end of the playing area. Not only is this game a heap of fun but it also helps improve hand-eye coordination and precision.
Skittles has been around in some form since ancient Egypt and shares its ancestry with games such as lawn bowls. The game was known as Quilles in early France, and then became popular in England during the 14th Century, particularly around taverns. The name gradually changed - from Kayles, to Kettle, to Kittles and then Skittles.
Skittles is an awesome game that combines skill and strategy, making it a timeless classic loved by many.
