Dear Forum,

Does anyone have a set of Ing stones I could purchase?

I've been looking for a set of Ing stones for five years, I'd be grateful for your help! Please PM me if you have one you are willing to sell.

I’d be willing to buy just the stones without the counting bowls as well!

Thanks so much,
EH :D

Since 2018 I have been storing 7 sets of Ing stones/bowls in my loft for
the BGA as loan stock but they are no longer required for this purpose.

If anyone wants any of the sets, you can have them for the cost of
postage and packing. The rest will be going to the recycling centre.
Contact me if interested.


The stones are plastic-coated and are quite heavy (~3.5kg per set).
Note that there is a possibility that they contain lead.

If you were at Trigantius a few weeks ago, you may seen or have played on
some identical sets that were there (the ones with the hexagonal bowls
with push-out insert).
