Handmade Hand Painted Indonesian Game Congklak with Shells

This item is approx 20 years old. The colours of the game board are beautiful and worthy of displaying. The handmade pouch for the shells has a vintage charm too. That type of patterned fabric was popular during the 1990s. We don't have instructions for the game but there's instructions available online. The info card indicates it was produced as a poverty reduction effort for a mountain area called Yogyakarta. The wood is a mahogany, commercial timber that didn't harm the rain forest.
