Bakelite Dice

Crafted from Bakelite, the world's first fully synthetic plastic, these vintage dice trace their origins to chemist Leo Baekeland's 1907 invention. Made by molding a durable phenol-formaldehyde resin under heat and pressure, Bakelite dice are prized for their weight, distinctive feel, and rich colors.

This set of bakelite dice have a beautiful, warm buttery color with deep, black pips. The dice have minor surface wear including some scratches and nicks as well as small areas of discoloration.
