In our short guide to wooden Bridge bidding boxes we take a look at the wonderful, timeless and beautiful nature of wooden bridge bidding boxes.
Why Wooden Bidding Boxes?
Although the plastic boxes are very popular with most people, there are those out there who like to use items that are both functional and beautiful. For this reason we offer a choice of two styles of wooden box.
Mahogany or Cherry Wood Bridge Bidding Boxes
These little beauties have been hugely popular with our customers through the years. When we first decided to offer wooden bidding boxes, we got samples of the boxes available and chose this box over the more commonly available ‘Elegance’ box offered by other suppliers.
Why? Because this box has strong concealed hinges so the inside of the box looks neat, whereas the ‘Elegance’ box has a long, visible hinge which causes some of the boxes not to close properly. Our Mahogany and Cherry Wooden Bidding boxes are well made and sound solid when closed and in our opinion they are a superior box. We offer this box with plastic bidding cards which are longer-lasting than standard cards and can be kept clean with a quick wipe over with a slightly damp cloth.
Our Verdict
Both of these boxes are attractive and well-made with superior qualities over its counterparts, including plastic bidding cards. The mahogany wood bidding box is finished with a dark laquer and the cherry wood bidding box retains the warm reddish hues of the wood. No matter what your interior style one of these boxes is bound to suit, especially if you team it up with one of our fantastic bridge card tables.
The Simon Lucas Luxury Walnut Wood Boxes
This stunningly beautiful box is quite simply in a class of its own.
These highly figured bidding boxes are made from African Walnut wood. The grain patterns mean that no two boxes are the same. Each box has been finished with Danish Oil. This gives the wood a natural lustre and finish, thus preserving the texture of the wood’s grain and its colour.
This set of four wooden bidding boxes are presented in a beautiful handmade presentation case to protect them for years to come, and each presentation case is created to order so we’re even able to offer a choice of fabric for the case lining.
Our Verdict
The Walnut Wood bidding box is in a class of its own – it’s the ultimate luxury box for bidding.
