About this piece
Two rows of hollows, and a long afternoon ahead.
Makers in Ponorogo, Indonesia, carved this congkuk game board in wood in the early 20th century. Congklak, or congkak, is a counting game of the mancala family, commonly played by two people moving seeds or shells from hole to hole. This long, narrow board has two parallel rows of deep, round hollows set in pairs. The wood is reddish brown and smooth, darker inside the hollows, with a few small dings along the edges.
About 56 inches long. Lean it on a wall, or lay it on a console as a runner.
