The biggest die of my collection and a Chinese ivory set in bottle ( ivory) . The small red die is 16mm, so you can imagine (or calculate) how small my smallest dice are!!!!!!!!!!!

If you ever want to pay a visit to The Netherlands in order to go hunting DICE in The Hague, Delft, Leyden and Amsterdam (permanent markets) I can highly recommand you to stay on the nice rural camping (15 places) near to my place. It is called Camping Noorthey , website:   www.campingnoorthey.nl  If you want to have a look in my mini museum as well I advise you to make an appointment with me beforehand.
