Collectors Dice brings to you for bidding: Item #148 TWO 5/8" SQUARE RARE VINTAGE BLACK OPAQUE FRENCH GALALITH DICE FROM A RARE FACTORY FIND OUTSIDE OF PARIS, FRANCE. THIS AUCTION INCLUDES A SMALL, VELVET POUCH WITH DRAWSTRINGS TO STORE YOUR DICE IN. Materials were introduced in 1907 by Dr. Leo Baekland. The process produced a hard, durable product for the manufacture of many items. In the early 1920's the process was altered with the use of a milk protein and similar items were produced only with a rainbow of spectacular and brilliant colors and marbleing patterns. This was called FRENCH GALALITH which is how our dice were made. LUCITE was introduced in the 1930's. It was more cost effective to produce than the others. The Lucite process produced items with brilliant luster, seamless patterns and a jewel like transparency. Our Lucite dice are the transparent and semi-transparent type dice, either shown here or in our other auctions. None of these processes are being used today however the items that have been made, including our dice, continue to rise in value as one of the most sought after collectables. Our Collection is the only one of its kind available for sale. It was a rare factory find outside of Paris, France and is a collection of Rare, Vintage French Galalith and Lucite Dice in spectacular, brilliant colors and styles. We also offer dice accessories such as Dice Cups, Dice Trays and Dice Pouches to compliment your dice purchase. These accessories are not vintage. Our dice are VINTAGE BUT HAVE NEVER BEEN USED. PLEASE VISIT OUR EBAY STORE TO VIEW OUR FULL COLLECTION, WITH DICE ACCESSORIES. SHIPPING FOR THIS ITEM IS $1.99 BY 1ST CLASS MAIL, WITHIN THE U.S. AND WILL BE SHIPPED IMMEDIATELY (WITHIN 24 HOURS IN MOST CASES) UPON RECEIVING PAYMENT. WORLDWIDE SHIPPING IS $1.99 IN U.S. DOLLARS. PLEASE NOTE OUR POSITIVE FEEDBACK SO YOU CAN BID WITH CONFIDENCE.
